A new player has emerged in film distribution with the launch of Caos Cine, founded by Regina Serratos and Eduardo Diaz Cazanova. The company made its debut at the Morelia Film Festival (FICM) on October 19th, premiering its first pickup, "The Huntress." This film marks the Mexican premiere of Susanne Andrews Correa's debut feature.
"The Huntress" stars Adriana Paz, a Cannes 2024 Best Actress winner. The movie is based on real events in Ciudad Juárez, where Paz portrays Luz, a mother seeking to protect her daughter and other young factory workers by confronting a serial rapist. The film explores the consequences of her actions.
Filmed in Ciudad Juárez and Mexico City, "The Huntress" was produced by Zafiro Cinema and The Population.

Director Susanne Andrews Correa conducted extensive research in Ciudad Juárez, interviewing various locals to ensure a nuanced and sensitive portrayal of complex issues. The film serves as both a tribute to resistance and a cautionary tale about injustices. Caos Cine proudly welcomes "The Huntress," the only Latin American film selected for Sundance 2026, to its catalog.
