Centro Universitario de Estudios Cinematográficos

Centro Universitario de Estudios Cinematográficos (CUEC) was founded in 1963 as part of the National Autonomous University of Mexico. It was influenced by the Nouvelle Vague and by the First Contest of Experimental Film organized in Mexico that year.

In 42 years, CUEC has had as students several of the main Mexican filmmakers.

CUEC produces almost 100 short films a year, many showing at international festivals.
