We are Brit Es are delighted to announce our very first event: CORTOMETRAJES — 7 Short films, a screening which will take place on 16 September from 7pm. The event has been set up to put the spotlight on Brit Es talent and creativity — a concept that encompasses people, projects, trends and proposals which emerge in the United Kingdom, but with a Spanish character or origin which are also influenced by British culture.
Filmmaker Isabel Coixet will present her film ‘Learning to Drive’ on Sunday 27 September at Regent Street Cinema in Central London at London Spanish Film Festival. The screening will be preceded by a unique on-stage conversation between her and Prof. María Delgado (Queen Mary University).

A glimpse into Cinema from Catalonia and Basque Country at 11th London Spanish Film Festival. Next September.
24 – 30 September 2015. Once again and for the 11th year, the London Spanish Film Festival returns with a selection of some of the best recent films from Spain including feature films as well as documentaries and shorts. This year some of the feature films (marked **) will be in competition and the winner will be decided by a Jury: Art Curator Andrew Dempsey, Vanity Fair’s journalist Bridget Arsenault, film producer Frank Mannion and actors Nickolas Grace and Charles Dance.
Documentary cinema is returning to Scotland with the second instalment of Iberodocs, the Ibero-American Documentary Film Festival. The festival aims to foster intercultural integration and to encourage audiences to reflect upon the concept of identity. And judging from this year’s programme, all manner of individual and collective identities will feature upon the screens of the Filmhouse in Edinburgh and the Centre for Contemporary Arts in Glasgow from May 14th to 24th.
In celebration of the inauguration of Iberodocs’ second season, we have arranged to meet with one of the festival’s foremost figures and a vital player in making the event a reality: Isabel Moura Mendes. An arts manager with a heritage that is half Cape Verdean, half Portuguese, she is this year’s programme curator for the Lusophone strand of films at the Iberodocs festival.
