London Spanish Film Festival - Spring Weekend 2015

Image taken from the festival's email mailout
    The London Spanish Film Festival's 5th Spring Weekend runs this Friday to Sunday - the programme and schedule can be found here
    I don't have time to write up anything new this week, but I can recommend the three films from the line-up that I've seen - Todos están muertos, 10,000 Km, and La isla mínima. I haven't written about the latter yet, but the other two featured in my top 10 new Spanish films of 2014 and I also reviewed 10,000 Km last autumn.
    If - like me - you can't make it to London to see the films, El Niño got a UK DVD release before Christmas and the other four are all available on DVD in Spain (the three that I've seen all have optional English subs).

10th London Spanish Film Festival, 25th September - 5th October

Libertarias (1996), showing as part of the Vicente Aranda retrospective

Eye for Film have a short preview that I've written about the 10th edition of the London Spanish Film Festival, which starts next week. I'll be reviewing about ten nine of the films in total and will update this post with links as and when the reviews go online, rather than creating separate posts for each one.

London Spanish Film Festival Spring Weekend

Image taken from the LSFF mailer

The London Spanish Film Festival's 4th Spring Weekend started yesterday. You can see an overview that I wrote over at Eye for Film, and I've also written reviews of 15 años y un día / 15 Years and One Day (Gracia Querejeta, 2013) [I'm slightly mystified by the awards attention it has received in Spain], Petit Indi / Little Indi (Marc Recha, 2009) [showing as part of a Sergi López retrospective, and my favourite of the films that are screening], and Todas las mujeres / All the Women (Mariano Barroso, 2013).
