Instituto Cervantes showcases free Spanish contemporary films

This November, Instituto Cervantes, in collaboration with the Festival de Cine Europeo de Sevilla and the Embassy of Spain in the Philippines, will present the film cycle 'New Cinephilias Online,' featuring four recent movies which — due to their language and their themes — innovate, take risks and play with contemporary structures and narratives. The films will be shown through the Instituto Cervantes channel on the Vimeo platform and will be freely accessible for 48 hours from their start date and time.

The film series kicked off on November 6 and 7 with the thriller 'Arima' (2017). Four women and a girl who, upon the arrival of two strangers, see how their environment becomes unbalanced and how fear and desire emerge, discovering a tangle of echoes from the past, mysteries and mirror games. The movie will be available on demand for 48 hours until November 9 at 3 a.m.
