The trend is to mix the genre with films authorial “The trend is to mix the genre with the authorial film, many people, especially the young, that makes fantasy film aimed at reflection -and cites” Origins “by Mike Cahill , “The Signal” by William Eubank, or “How I Live Now” by Kevin McDonald-; play filmmaking almost arty, which is greatly influenced by Sundance; previously there indie film gender “was made, said Sala.

For the first time, said Hall, the festival extends “to the territory bordering the” thriller “or action movies more police, , but has always been present, now becomes independent within the official section. “
A program which highlights ” the richness, variety and fertility of the we call genre film and that, in fact, is an inexhaustible source of young talent, and all latitudes, “says festival director.
Securities backed by the best festivals

In this regard, he explained that there illustrious visitors coming from more “conventional” as “wild stories” Damien Szifrón or “Magical Girl” festivals, Carlos Vermouth, direct the Zinemaldia.
The strangest film
