Festivals

Daniela Marinho is part of the Buenos Aires Talents at BACIFI this year. Two years ago, her filmmaking partner, Rafaela Camelo participated with the same project: Blood of my Bloods, which is their first feature film.

The Walt Disney Company, which is celebrating its centennial in 2023, threw a bit of a low-key commemorative revelry during its CinemaCon presentation at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Instead of cake and champagne, the Burbank-based Mouse House instead chose to let their upcoming slate of films, which for the first time presented product from all seven of their main studios, do the toasting.

Co-founder and programmer of Subway Cinema, Goran Topalovic, talks about the upcoming 10th Old School Kung Fu Festival:  Sword Fighting Heroes Edition.   It’s the biggest retrospective of Taiwanese wuxia (sword-fighting hero) movies ever seen in New York City, where the festival is held.

CinemaCon 2023 kicked off with a bang on Monday, April 24, at the Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada. An annual trade show hosted by the National Association of Theater Owners (NATO), the event brings together exhibition executives and theater managers from all over the United States and indeed, the world.

Movies are back - that was the celebratory sentiment last year at CinemaCon, the annual film industry event in Las Vegas which attracts international and domestic cinema representatives from all over the world. It was a self-reassuring hopeful mantra that movie theaters are on the rebound in a post-pandemic reality.

If watching a scary movie sounds like bliss to you then Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival is the place to be. The festival showcases films with themes that are fantastic in one form or another.

Comfortably nestled in the Atlantic Ocean, 93 miles west of the Moroccan coastline, the Canary Islands are a Spanish archipelago made up of rugged volcanic isles, complete with black- and white-sand beaches, year-round sunshine, and some of Europe’s best late-night parties. Situated in the second largest of the eight islands is Gran Canaria, whose capital Las Palmas was founded in 1478.
