About the event
This smash road trip from Oscar-winner Alfonso Cuarón (Children of Men, Gravity) is a pivotal title in contemporary Mexican cinema.
Featuring Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna in what is arguably their breakout roles, Y tu mamá también follows a pair of horny teenagers from Mexico City from different classes who, after their girlfriends jet off to Italy for the summer, are bewitched by a gorgeous older Spanish woman (Maribel Verdú) they meet at a wedding.
When she agrees to accompany them on a trip to a faraway beach, the three form an increasingly intense and sensual alliance that ultimately strips them both physically and emotionally bare.
This special screening is part of Leeds Cinema Crawl: Reel Journeys. A journey of truly cinematic proportions.
Archive, Cottage Road Cinema, Howard Assembly Room and Hyde Park Picture House come together to offer a unique opportunity for film lovers.
The Leeds Cinema Crawl is a day-long event featuring a screening at each venue. All the films feature a journey of some kind and will be shown consecutively, allowing cinemagoers to travel between each stop, make a detour or two and take part in a few extra activities along the way.
As with any good road trip, the four venues have brought some friends along for the ride – Leeds International Film Festival, Scalarama Leeds and Scour Cinema will all contribute to the crawl.
