Overview
- The AMACC awarded En el camino six Arieles at the gala held at Estudios Churubusco, with prizes including Best Picture and Best Direction for David Pablos.
- Lead actors Osvaldo Sánchez and Mariano López Sosa won Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor respectively while Víctor Miguel Prieto was named Revelación Actoral and Ximena Amann won Best Photography.
- The ceremony, held at Mexico City as part of the Academy's 80th anniversary on Saturday, Oct. 3, also gave career honors to Rosita Arenas and Demetrio Bilbatúa and awarded the Medalla Salvador Toscano to Óscar Menéndez.
- Organizers and attendees used the platform to highlight a persistent exhibition problem: major commercial chains give limited screen time to many Mexican films, prompting the AMACC to call for partnerships with schools and other steps to build audiences.
- Analysis of the winners shows public support shaped results—22 awards went to ten films that received backing from institutions such as the Secretaría de Cultura, IMCINE or Ibermedia—and the AMACC framed that funding as central to international campaigns, including En el camino's selection to represent Mexico for the 2027 Oscars.
