BTF Media and Spain’s AF Films have teamed up to co-produce “Hasta el Fin del Mundo,” the next film of actress Aislinn Derbez (“Miss Bala”), who marks her debut as an executive producer through her shingle Ais Ais Baby.
The romantic drama is also the feature debut of Emiliano Castro Vizcarra, who has written and directed numerous shorts, winning multiple awards, including Best Director at the Cineteca Nacional.
“Hasta el Fin del Mundo” (“Together Till the End”), a working title, is described as a compelling drama where a man’s destiny takes an unexpected turn when a woman from his past resurfaces after 15 years.

It’s also the first time Derbez is paired with actor Mauricio Ochmann (“Marina,” “El Senor de los cielos”) who plays Manuel, a successful businessman about to marry the love of his life. However, a sudden phone call changes everything, leading Manuel to rekindle a connection with Esmeralda, played by Derbez, a woman who left a lasting impact on him many years ago.
