Festival of New Spanish Cinema

Festival of New Spanish Cinema CHICAGO 2015Mar 06–Apr 02

FESTIVAL OF NEW SPANISH CINEMA as part of EU Film Festival: The official traveling festival about the new trends in Spanish Cinema is the North America’s leading showcase that returns with five premieres, allowing you to discover and share your love of Spanish Cinema

In its eighth consecutive year, the 2015 Festival of New Spanish Cinema consolidates itself as the most important itinerant festival of contemporary Spanish Cinema in North America. The Festival will screen some of the riskiest and most innovative Spanish films of the year, while providing a space for the audience to discuss the pieces with the filmmakers. We are pleased to present some really delightful comedies, some films will offer glimpses into important and hidden issues; others will inspire us with music and history and others will explore love without frontiers. Enjoy all these powerful award winning Spanish unique stories with us!
