Festival of New Spanish Cinema

Festival Of New Spanish Cinema Portland 2011Sep 30–Oct 23

The irreverence and energy of Almodovar. The risk-taking of Amenabar. The unadulterated exhilaration of Buñuel. The fourth annual FESTIVAL OF NEW SPANISH CINEMA continues in unveiling the next generation of Spanish film masters.

Featuring first-time filmmakers and established artists alike, this year’s program offers something for Spanish cinema lovers of all persuasions: award-winning comedies, romances, dramas, and thrillers, including a lost horror classic.
