XII Muestra de cine realizado por mujeres
The Women's Group of Sobrarbe and the Feminist Women's Group of Huesca organise what will be the 12th Exhibition of films carried out by women which will be held in Huesca from the 12th to the 18th March 2012.
Two of the films that make up this cycle (Tabou and Mwansa the great) come to Huesca in partnership with Cinenómada, sponsored by Casa África because it has the same objective as Al-Tarab of making African cinema visible to as many Spanish audiences as possible and of brining Africa closer to Spain.
Cinenómada makes available to various entities a large selection of films from past editions of the FCAT, subtitled in Spanish, which is to date the only offering of this dimension and genre that exists in Spain and that guarantees African producers an income, which although modest, is often the only one they receive.
It targets associations, municipalities, regional governments, universities, cultural centers, film libraries, museums and any type of organization or institution that is interested in promoting African cinema. Cinenómada distributes films throughout the year that would otherwise remain only in specialized festivals.
With Mwansa the great we will get to know the story of this boy who tries to show everybody he is a hero, but he commits a terrible fault: he breaks Shula, his elder sister's clay doll. He has no other option but to embark on a search to repair the doll and also to show he really is Mwansa el Grande.
Tabou brings us the story of Leila, a young girl of 18 years old who on a single day during Ramadan, must face her demons. Her body makes her remember want she had to do to free her words. Only the song she sung as a child will make the wound heal.
Both films can be seen at the Teatro Olimpia at the following times:
- Mwansa the great 14th March at 19:15h
- Tabou on 17th March at 22:00h
The entrance for both screenings is free
