Marbella Summer Film Festival August 23-29
There is a week of free screenings taking place in Plaza Antonio Banderas in Puerto Banus from 23-29 August as an extension of the Marbella Film Festival which takes place in the Autumn.
Each evening starting at 9:30 pm, the festival offers some of the outstanding works from the past festivals, free of charge! The award winning films scheduled for screening this August are from Spain, UK. U.S.A, Russia, Germany, Italy, Iran, Afghanistan, Argentina, Denmark, Ireland and India. There are short films, animation, documentaries and feature films in the original version with English or Spanish subtitles.
Detailed programs of the titles, subjects and times can be found in the Marbella Tourist Offices in Marbella and Puerto Banus, the Marbella Casino, Hotel H10 Andalucia Plaza and at the stands of Antonio Banderas plaza in Puerto Banus or online at www.marbellafilmfestival.com.
I’d really suggest you take advantage of this if you like culture. We went along to last year’s film festival and there was a great programme of films and entertainment, totally free, but hardly anyone was there! I think this is crazy when it’s such a great event, so this is your second chance to see some of the best bits. I hope you’ll be able to make it.
Here is the full programme:
