SUMMARY:Human Rights Film Festival of Barcelona
DESCRIPTION:The Koubek Center and the Spanish Cultural Center of Miami present\, for the second year in a row\, a selection of films from the Human Rights Film Festival of Barcelona. The event\, featuring films from Spain\, Brazil\, Burkina Faso\, Colombia\, Argentina\, and the Netherlands\, will take place next August 20 and 21st at the Koubek Center’s theater\, and August 22nd online. \nNow in its 17th season\, the mission of the Human Rights Film Festival of Barcelona is “To disseminate cinema that makes us reflect\, awakens consciences\, denounces injustices and reflects the social and cultural diversity of humanity. In the collective search for a sustainable humanity.” \nThis year’s festival addresses issues of global reach such as migration\, gender violence\, or the control of food by multinational corporations but then\, it also explores more personal matters\, such as bullying\, or the fight for respect and the right to a good life by those some states and institutions judge as “different.” The selection features films ranging in length from one to 37 minutes\, include both documentaries and works of fiction. Thematically\, the films range broadly\, including Brazil’s Contramare\, which focuses on the moving of a youth orchestra bringing music and hope to a violent shanty town in Rio de Janeiro; and Burkinabe Bounty\, documenting the local resistance in Burkina Faso for food sovereignty; but also the absurdist\, darkly comical Una Cabrita Sin Cuernos\, from Argentina\, based on actual events\, in which a children’s book sparks the paranoid fears of the military ruling the country. Some are sharply drawn vignettes\, illuminating the hidden drama of poverty (Spain’s Macaroni) or slyly commenting on world destruction (Spain’s Broken Dreams) while others\, such as Spain’s Diversity and Lands\, offers testimony of members of the LGBTQ\, from places as disparate as Honduras\, Bulgaria and Morocco\, persecuted by the state for being “different.” \nAll films are in Spanish with English subtitles. \nThe safety of our patrons\, students\, and staff is our priority. Measures to prevent transmission of Covid-19 will be enforced at the event in accordance with federal\, state and local health agency guidance. Facial coverings will be strongly encouraged. We appreciate your collaboration.

SUMMARY:Oceans Are The Real Continents
DESCRIPTION:Jordan Ressler First Feature Award \nDirector Tommaso Santambrogio will be in attendance to participate in a post-screening Q&A. \nThis screening is a part of the Spotlight on Cuba at Miami Film Festival\, made possible with support of ArtesMiami.  \nItalian-born director Tommaso Santambrogio opens a poignant new window into the allure\, tragedy\, hope\, and human cost of exile from Cuba sixty-five years after the communist revolution. Shot in elegant\, highly stylized black and white and focused on the frozen-in-time Cuban town of San Antonio De Los Baños\, a series of stories unfold: Alex (Alexander Diego) and Edith (Edith Ibarra)\, young artists in love\, perfect for each other—except\, perhaps\, in their plans for the future. An elderly peanut peddler (Milagros Llanes Martinez) revisiting the past through decades-old letters from her dead husband. A pair of little leaguers with New York Yankee dreams. All face the specter of separation while navigating a world they did not create. \n—– \nTommaso Santambrogio was born in 1992 in Italy. He lived and studied between Milan\, Paris\, Roma and La Havana and he worked with several international acclaimed directors\, like Werner Herzog and Lav Diaz. He is known for L’Ultimo Spegne la Luce (2021)\, Gli Oceani Sono i Veri Continenti (2019) and Escena Final (2019). \nSponsored by Jordan Ressler Foundation\, ArtesMiami\, and FlixLatino \nFollow Miami Film Festival on Instagram\, Facebook and Twitter.

SUMMARY:En La Caliente - Tales of A Reggaeton Warrior
DESCRIPTION:Documentary Achievement Award \nDirector Fabien Pisani will be in attendance to participate in a post-screening Q&A. \nThis screening is a part of the Spotlight on Cuba at Miami Film Festival\, made possible with support of ArtesMiami.  \nToday\, reggaeton is the most popular genre of music among Latinos in Latin America and the United States. Sixty years after Mambo and Cha Cha Cha\, and forty years after Salsa\, reggaeton reigns as a world-wide symbol of Latino pop culture and as one of the strongest urban cultural trends. In Cuba\, a historical hub of Latin music\, the reggaeton movement is extremely powerful. However\, it’s almost impossible to find reggaeton in record stores\, or to hear it on the radio or television. En La Caliente tells the story of how reguetón has become the megaphone of an emerging Cuba against the official discourse. \n—– \nFabien Pisani is known for En La Caliente – Tales of A Reggaeton Warrior\, 7 Days in Havana (2011) and Juana Bacallao (2015). \nSponsored by FlixLatino and ArtesMiami.

SUMMARY:PUFFING IRON
DESCRIPTION:Made in MIA Feature Award \nDirectors Chris Rodriguez & Grant Rosado will be in attendance to participate in a post-screening Q&A. \nYou’ve heard of moms who gain the superhuman strength necessary in a crisis to lift cars off their trapped children? Puffing Iron is sort of like that\, only with stoners and making rent. Set during a hot summer in Little Havana\, Jamie (Elijah Moseley) and Ace (Bryan Serra) blissfully float through life eating ice cream\, watching movies\, and smoking weed—until an eviction notice appears. The good news? A fourth place finish in their local gym’s powerlifting competition would cover the housing short…and maybe another eighth. The bad? Their guns are currently more like spitball straws. What begins as a semi-harebrained lark\, however\, soon becomes more transformative\, physically and otherwise. Somewhere along the road from puff to buff lies transcendence. \n—– \nChris Rodriguez is an Argentine-American entrepreneur and film producer\, director\, and screenwriter. He was born and raised in Miami\, Florida along with two older sisters. He graduated with degrees in film production and entrepreneurship from Emerson College\, where he co-founded R&R Film Studios as a student.
