Iñárritu and Arriaga Reunite at Bellas Artes as ‘Amores Perros’ Marks 25 Years

The 25th‑anniversary program pairs a 4K restoration with an exhibition built from nearly one million feet of preserved footage.

Overview

  • A public embrace at the Palacio de Bellas Artes ended a two‑decade estrangement between director Alejandro G. Iñárritu and screenwriter Guillermo Arriaga during the anniversary event.
  • The commemorative function, organized by IMCINE and INBAL, screened the restored film and closed with a concert by composer Gustavo Santaolalla.
  • The 4K restoration, sourced from the original 35mm negative and supervised by Iñárritu and cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto, returns to cinemas on October 9 and arrives on MUBI on October 24.
  • Iñárritu’s installation ‘Sueño Perro’ is open at Lago/Algo in Mexico City from October 5 to January 4, projecting 40–50 minutes of recovered 35mm footage with a purpose‑built soundscape.
  • The exhibition draws on roughly 985,000 feet of unused film preserved by UNAM and is part of an international circuit that includes Fondazione Prada in Milan and a planned stop at LACMA.
