SUMMARY:Cuban Film Fest
DESCRIPTION:The Sebastopol Center for the Arts Film Programs is partnering with the Numina Center for Spirituality & the Arts to present the first Sonoma County Cuban Film Festival on July 24 & 25\, 2015. Featuring five major recent Cuban feature films\, several Cuban short films\, and two catered musical events it is sure to be an exciting new festival.  Director Alfredo Ureta will attend the Festival on Saturday the 25th for the screening of his film The Mole’s Den (La Guarida del Topo).After more than 50 years\, we are now living in historic times as the governments of the United States and Cuba are opening to each other.  This will end the economic blockade that has brought so much suffering to the people of Cuba\, and it will bring estranged brothers and sisters back together again.“We want to be part of building that bridge\,” says Festival organizer Jon Jackson\, Chair of the Numina Center Board.  “It’s a bridge based on the Arts.  And\, besides\, every film is just exceptionally good.”  Ann Marie Stock\, Professor of Hispanic Studies and Film and Media Studies at William & Mary College\, and author of several books on Cuban Cinema\, has served as the Festival’s film advisor.  “Cuban cinema is essential\,” says Dr. Stock\, “because it shows the impact of globalization on local representation\, the intersection of visual culture and sociopolitical transformation\, and the role of film and media in identity formation.” Dr. Jackson says\, “None of this would have been possible without her.”Passes On Sale Now at Brown Paper Tickets!\nPassholders get access to the entire festival\, including the Opening Reception\, all films\, and the Closing Night Party.
