Spanish Film Club Program announces a new deadline and all new virtual platform!

Professors all around the country are calling SFC, “A very valuable and thought-provoking experience”, and are grateful "to be able to include quality films in my courses and offer a safe choice for my students during this pandemic via Pragda's streaming option." Of SFC Virtual Festival, they say, “Our impact is greater now,” "What a wonderful platform, very professional look,” and “Still strong!"

Universities can choose from this year’s fantastic film line-up that includes award-winning titles like the official selections to the Academy Awards from Colombia, Alejandro Landes’ critically acclaimed Monos, and Costa Rica’s The Awakening of the Ants; Pablo Larrain’s new film, Ema, starring Gael García Bernal; the electrifying comedy Perfect Strangers; the powerfully inventive docu-thriller about immigration detention centers, The Infiltrators; an exploration of the racism inflicted on indigenous people in Mexico, Guie’dani’s Navel; a Chilean film about the arcane racism affecting its immigrant population, Perro Bomba; an emotional cross-cultural musical journey from NYC to Puerto Rico, Miguelito: A Song To Puerto Rico; a revision of the Falklands War, Neither Hero Nor Traitor; and the unusual polyamorous story of love and freedom, The City of the Future.
