CHICAGO WELCOMES BACK
FESTIVAL OF NEW SPANISH CINEMA
From November 13-19, 2009, our annual FESTIVAL OF NEW SPANISH CINEMA (FNSC) will premiere at FACETS CINEMATHEQUE while presenting a special around-the-clock screening online. The FNSC tour presents the finest offbeat, independent and artistically-inspired Spanish films from all genres: experimental, documentary, animation and narrative.
And the festival is about more than the screenings alone. There are also short films available online, cutting-edge media exhibits, and of course, our popular opening night party with good movies, offered by Tourist Office of Spain, Chicago, and Freixenet.
Last but not least, as a new offering this year and to precede each feature, we present Teaserland: an entertaining initiative featuring fake movie trailers by well-known directors such as Isabel Coixet (Elegy, The Secret Life of Words), Jaume Balaguero (Rec), and J.A. Bayona (The Orphanage), alongside up-and-coming filmmakers.
Have a look and see when we’re coming your way! We’ll be sure to bring the charm and hospitality, and share our Spanish extravaganza with you.
SPECIAL OFFER TO INSTITUTO CERVANTES CHICAGO MEMBERS!: Print out this email and show it at the box office. We’ll apply the special price of $7.
