Villanueva de la Serena will once again participate in the programming of the International LGBTI Film Festival of Extremadura, known as FestCineQueer, continuing the municipality's collaboration with this cultural event. The initiative, driven by the Triángulo Foundation, brings to the Extremaduran audience cinematic proposals that highlight sexual and gender diversity, promoting respect, equality, and coexistence.
The local programming includes two sessions at the Teatro Las Vegas, both starting at 20:30. The first session will take place on Tuesday, 10 November, featuring a selection of five short films: “Le prime volte”, “Cuando atraviesa un destello”, “Kiboko, Plumass”, and “Un jersey que no pica”. These diverse stories aim to engage the audience with various realities through different cinematic formats and perspectives.
The second session is scheduled for Thursday, 12 November, showcasing the feature film “9 lunas”, directed by Patricia Ortega. This film explores the experience of Ángel, a young personal trainer whose life changes when he discovers he is pregnant. It raises questions related to identity, masculinity, and social expectations, offering a reflection on the diversity of personal experiences.
The local council encourages citizens to attend both sessions and enjoy a cultural offering that opens the door to new perspectives and challenges prejudices. Public participation is essential in making Villanueva de la Serena a city committed to equality, freedom, and respect for diversity.
