From 10 June-12 July, the 29th Spanish & Latin American Film Festival will be bringing the fiesta to cinemas around Australia. Among the line-up is Alauda Ruiz de Azúa multi award-winning drama SUNDAYS, Gabriel Mascaro's extraordinary Amazon odyssey THE BLUE TRAIL, Marcelo Martinessi's seduction Paraguayan noir NARCISO, Carla Simon's beautiful new drama ROMERÍA, and Cesc Gay's effervescent new comedy MY FRIEND EVA.

Now showing across Australia after overwhelming demand at the German Film Festival, AMRUM is the new film from award-winning director Fatih Akin (The Edge of Heaven, In The Fade), a deeply affecting historical drama about a young boy caught between family allegiance and an emerging moral conscience in wartime Germany. A profound meditation on innocence, loss, and the enduring need for compassion, inspired by true events.

Writer/director Thierry Klifa on his irresistible dark comedy THE RICHEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD: "What fascinated me from the start was the Shakespearean quality of the story. There is at once tragedy and farce, the two blend together. I wasn’t going to make anybody cry for the extra-rich, so we might as well laugh at them. Their wit is funny, and so is their cruelty. But we also laugh at their ridiculousness, their excess."
