Festival of New Spanish Cinema

Festival Of New Spanish Cinema Miami 2009Oct 06–Oct 11

With films by such veteran filmmakers as Juan Luis Iborra, Javier Fesser and Gabriel Velázquez shown side-by-side with cutting edge debut productions from the newest generation including Albert Arizza, Irene Cardona, David Planell, Santiago Zannou, and Miguelanxo Prado, there is much to relish in this year’s festival. Presenting new and outrageous interpretations of classic genres including melodrama, thriller and animation, this year’s styles range from superb examples of Spain’s offbeat thrillers like Ramirez and the brutal, wrenching fairy tales Camino and De Profundis, to socially engaged cinema like A Fiancé for Yasmina or One-Armed Trick.

Other special events – More than just great cinema!

This year’s festival promises more than just great cinema. We’ll host Q&A screenings with actress Natalia Mateo (The Shame), an online short film festival, family film screenings with the classic animation De Profundis and a presentation from Teaserland.com. There’s something for everyone!
