New Order (Spanish: Nuevo orden) is a 2020 Mexican-French thriller art film.[4] It takes place in a dystopian near future Mexico. It was written, directed, produced and edited by Michel Franco and is a French-Mexican co-production.

The film had its world premiere on September 10, 2020 at the Venice Film Festival, where it won the Grand Jury Prize. Shots of darker-skinned underclass attacking a lighter-skinned elite provoked a furious backlash on Mexican social media when its trailer was released because of its perceived racial stereotyping.[5] The criticism towards the film continued after its premiere in theaters and still remained after its release in streaming.[6][7][8][9][10] The film stars Naian González Norvind, Diego Boneta and Mónica Del Carmen.
