10th Cine Latino Film Fest

MSP Film Society presents the 10th edition of its annual Cine Latino Film Fest, including the screening of 8 Spanish films.

Cine Latino was launched in 2012 by MSP Film as the Upper Midwest’s first showcase of the best of new Latin American, Iberian and U.S. Latinx cinema. The intention was to engage with and reflect the cultures of Minnesota’s growing Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking communities, celebrate their rich filmmaking histories and cutting-edge film industries, and draw in the Twin Cities’ community of global cinephiles.
