Movie buffs – FREE Spanish film festival!
Now we know how hard (and expensive) it is to get that first film off the ground, so do yourselves a favour all aspirational movie-makers – take a break and grab your neglected friends and loved ones and treat yourselves to some muchos grande Spanish flieks – they’re free!
The Spanish film industry experienced a boom this year thanks to the international success of The Sea Inside…
(Mar Adentro) which received an Oscar as Best Foreign Language Film.
Now South African film fans have the chance to see some of the best award-winning films Spain produced at this year’s Spanish Film Festival at Cinema Nouveau screened by Jameson. Best news of all is that attendance is free.
The films include the Cannes Film Festival winner The Hours of the Day; the hilarious comedy Torremolinos 73 and the Spanish Civil War drama Soldados de Ssalamina.
