Summary
Mexican filmmaker Alonso Ruizpalacios delivered a masterclass at the Bogotá Audiovisual Market (BAM), opening with Elizabeth Butcher's poem "One Art" to address the audience's disappointment over Colombia's World Cup loss. He discussed coping with loss, the need for more "Trojan horses" in cinema — subversive ideas hidden within mainstream formats — and the perils of AI in filmmaking. Ruizpalacios shared insights from his career, including his work on "La Cocina" and "A Cop Movie," and reflected on the challenges of making politically and socially engaged cinema in a changing industry landscape.

We need more Trojan horses — ideas that seem like one thing on the surface but carry something deeper, more subversive inside.
AI is not a tool, it's a replacement. It's a Trojan horse for something much more dangerous.
