Yo ("Me") is a 2015 Mexican drama film, directed and written by Matías Meyer. The film stars Raúl Silva, as a young man, with limited mental skills. He says he is fifteen years old, although he seems to be older. He lives and works in his mother's restaurant by a busy freeway. One day he meets Elena, an eleven-year-old girl, who will change his life forever. Yo is adapted by Meyer and Alexandre Auger from Histoire du pied et autres fantaisies by French author J.M.G. Le Clézio.

Yo premiered at the 13th Morelia International Film Festival and was awarded for Best Mexican Feature Film and Best Actor for Raúl Silva.[1] The film also received a nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay at the Ariel Awards of 2016.[2]
