Alfonso Cuaron’s son Jonas brings own film to Toronto fest

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Jonas Cuaron is following in the footsteps of his famous father with a new film “Desierto.”

Cuaron is the son of Alfonso Cuaron, the Mexican director who made “Gravity.”

“Desierto” stars Gael Garcia Bernal and is set to open Sunday at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Jonas has worked with his father on scripts before, and this time he paired up with Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s grandson to write the script for Desierto.

Garcia Bernal plays the role of a migrant fleeing from a U.S. vigilante.

The film’s producers are Alfonso and Carlos Cuaron, Jonas’ uncle.
