The 45th edition of the Festival of New Latin American Cinema said: “The illusion, the hope and the whole thing have confirmed the belief that we are attending ten festivals of Latin American cinema,” and the Main Secretariat of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba confirmed and President of the Republic, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez.

In the evening of this year, the current President met with around centenarians, producers, theater makers, promoters and other artists and intellectuals who took part in the celebration in September from the region, the world and Cuba at the Cultural Center in La Habana.

The mandate was for the presence of personal staff at the event and coordination with the management and staff of the Instituto Cubano de Arte e Industria Cinematográfica (Icaic) through its ability to organize in the moderate conditions that the country is seeking.

“No, he spent all the time on those days filming, the festival in Cuba is a celebration and he familiarized us with our plans, but the time was so complicated that I didn’t have him,” Díaz-Canel agreed the invitees, a quienes explains all the difficulties, of course And the other guy I found in Cuba.

The director Manuel Herrera recorded the surgery of the Festival of New Latin American Cinema. “The festival has recovered from its initial function, it is a film that looks at Latin American film, a film that is difficult to see all over the world because after that we are very lucky and we have to continue on this path,” confirmed he.

Cuba: Punto de encuentro

The exchange between Díaz-Canel and the national and international personalities accompanying the festival began with the comments of the Argentine author Paola Becao, who took part in the Foro de Animación Latinoamericana y Caribeña, an initiative that published its second edition.

We wondered if this was the case now at the festival in Cuba and said: “They are far away and meet for Latin American realizers and animated films.”

Esther Hirzel Galarza, director of the animation studios of Icaic, who has been working for more than ten years, commented on the work of this institution, which for 20 years has been linked to a new session stimulated by the commander and Jefe Fidel Castro Ruz, this is you The Accumulation includes more than 1,500 titles, which lasts more than 9,000 minutes, and the accumulation begins by testing the highest technological limits, thank you for your collective.

Ricardo Cuesta, vice president of the Fundación de Patrimonio Fílmico de Colombia, commented on the restoration of various Cuban film materials as recently Adventures of Elpidio Valdés j Elpidio Valdes Against the blind trainpresented at the festival in the context of Frank Padrón’s family.

Declare your institution’s voluntary willingness to strengthen collaboration, within the framework of the last generation technologies that you have made available, as well as as an employer for the continuous recovery of the audiovisual memories of the Americas, Latin America and the Caribbean, which also its ejections include The Fundación del Nuevo Latin American Cinema and the Escuela Internacional de Cine de San Antonio de los Baños.

Filmmaker Adrían Carrazco Zenis, co-director of the Cinemateca de Nicaragua, sent Diaz-Canel a greeting to the commander Daniel Ortega and the vice president of Nicaragua, Rosario Murillo, and informed him of news between the Cinemateca nica and the Icaic, while he attended the The film was implemented in a series Martí, Gomez and Maceo in production with various Central American countries.

“Cuba is particularly important because the film art in Nicaragua was founded and founded in 1979 and has earned UNESCO World Intellectual Heritage designation for its works.”

Manuel Antonio Villa, president of the Instituto de Cine de Honduras, also expressed greetings to Díaz-Canel from client Xiomara Castro in his speech.

Sign the company with a Memorandum of Entendimiento with the Icaic and ask them to continue the film of your country, without recursions, since your experience and training; One of them, he explains, “is a Cuban vision that reflects the history of culture and film of a political nation of the state.”

Especially for the intervention of the state Carol Rosenberg, President of the American Friends of Fundación Ludwig, and director of the Havana Film Festival in New York for 25 years.

Founded in 2000, this international festival was dedicated to promoting Latin American film about America and Latin America and was an example. Rosenberg noted that relations between Cuba and the United States could exist under the circumstances. Including that the government of New York has recognized this festival as one of its most important cultural assets of the year.

Darin J. Sella, who was at the Farha festival and presented a project in the Palestinian cinema section, presented as a prayer in solidarity with this young man.

In it, President Díaz-Canel was honored for his victory in the land of Palestine. “Gracias por estar del lado correcto de la historia,” señaló. “We have shared a lot together, such as the bravery, life and many others that lie between our villages to resist oppression.”

The Argentine cinema president Tristán Bauer, president of the festival, represented the long and long emancipated path by leaving the cities of Latin America and the Caribbean on the occasion of the bicentenary of the Battle of Ayacucho and passing on to Cuba after the commemoration “el corazón”, porque, Er said: “The trio of the Cuban Revolution is also fundamental to the culture of our pueblos, because Cuba has long been a fundamental country.”

Defender of the film festival is defender of culture

In the final, Díaz-Canel repeated his rise to international personalities, participating in the games, events and the rest of the activities that he carried out. If you don’t have the support of the ICAIC Trabajo equipment, Cuban cinemas and Americans, you’re not at the festival.

A man who has worked a lot, a man who has done a lot of voluntary work from Cuba, said that he was part of the concretization of this festival over this long period of time, has been annoyed in recent months, and I have a few years ago had great difficulties until he met the fate of bloqueo, reflectionó.

We comment that Cuba has gained a lot of experience and is prepared to fulfill the desires; The mission of our country is to be able to create more valuable material for distribution with social justice and it is also, as I said, the defense that brings the Cultural Revolution and the defense of a space like the festival of the year Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano.

We argue, they are entrepreneurs, and we are in a better economic situation for Cubans and Cubans, “But if we have been in crisis for a long time, we have not dealt with the culture, we have not bothered to have a humanistic vocation in to develop our country, una espiritualidad que se food from the culture that we feed from the cinema when we consume material, and what interests us that we have a lot of it and can’t complain?”.

In the midst of more complex situations, it is clear to us that most nobles move us to promote this humanism, this feeling of solidarity, this feeling of emancipation, of collaboration and collaboration. For this reason, “supporting and supporting the festival of new Latin American cinema” is even worse.

“But that’s not all, but I’m sure that the Festival Internacional de Ballet has come together a few times in the middle of a Biennale of La Habana with all the tendencies of plastic art and this festival that is not with the tendencies of audiovisual Area coincides, Donde Cineastas Consagrados y Jóvenes Comparten “Experiences between debate and harmony, a difference between other festivals, other dominant ideas, Alguna’s elites”.

Along the way, this is a festival that has been accompanied by its fans such as Fidel, García Márquez and Alfredo Guevara and Díaz-Canel, because the largest blockade in the world could make it impossible for them to use them in terms of cinematic material, because —pronounced— en medium Due to economic and energetic vicissitudes, this event is the test of time for our pueblo.

Asimismo reiterated that Cuba took part in the festival of new Latin American cinema. “I attended the festival because we attended it, we also collected our ideas, and because it is the ICAIC team, the Fundación del Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano, our Ministry of Culture and our institutions, we are also Este empeño . “Entonces, que viva el Festival del Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano”.
