He has pretty much made it his home away from home – after presenting 2004's The Motorcycle Diaries and Bad Education, The King in 2005 and Babel in 2006, and to show he hasn’t worn out his welcome, Gael Garcia Bernal has been picked as ambassador of the Critics Week sidebar at Cannes. The final selection for the Critics Week lineup will be announced April 26.
Garcia Bernal will present his directorial debut, Déficit – written by Kyzza Terrazas, this is an adaptation of a television episode of Ruta 32 which focuses on class differences in Mexico.
A bit of trivia: Amores Perros was the section's winner that year.
