XIV Muestra Internacional de cine realizado por mujeres
The International Festival of Films Created by Women has the primary aim of creating a space to draw attention to the cinematographic culture of women, give visibility to discussions outside of hegemonic film boundaries, which take into consideration everyone on the edge of a dominating discussion.
This space for increasing visibility is backed by ten years of experience and is an annual event that takes place in the city of Zaragoza during the month of March.
Room will be made for African films at this festival through 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 centres, film libraries, museums and any type of organisation or institution that is interested in promoting African cinema. Cinenómada distributes films throughout the year that would otherwise remain only in specialised festivals.
The African films that will be shown are:
