Spanish Cinema
The Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in Washington, D.C. presents its Spanish Cinema program, an initiative that seeks to promote the internationalization of Spanish cinema and to support the Spanish film industry in the U.S.
To this end, the program is based on two strategic lines of work: strengthening the collaboration with American institutions and entities for the presentation of seasons, festivals and programs dedicated to Spanish cinema; and promoting the presence of Spanish directors at festivals in the country, facilitating their mobility.
