The participation of more than one hundred foreign guests from Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Peru, and Venezuela will distinguish the 32nd edition of the Romerías de Mayo (May Pilgrimages), which will take place in the city of Holguín from May 2 to 8.

The Gibara International Poor Film Festival concluded this Saturday with the presentation of the Lucia Award for Best Fiction Work to “Natural Phenomena”, a feature film directed by Marcos Diaz Sosa, which stands out for the sensitive and metaphorical value of the story, combined with an excellent direction and acting performance.

The promotion of restored films as cultural heritage was the topic for debate at the theoretical session of the Gibara International Poor Film Festival, which runs until April 19 in this coastal city of Holguín province.

The way films portray women, the differences between the male and female views, and a critical audience’s take on them were a topic for panel discussions in the International Poor Film  Festival currently under way in Gibara, Cuba.
