Boutique South America to help launch the Cine Latino Film Festival

Announcement posted by Boutique South America 25 Jul 2016

For Immediate release


Travel brand Boutique South America will join forces with Palace Cinemas to bring a new spotlight on Latin America with the Cine Latino Film Festival.

Cine Latino will be a new festival of Latin American cinema and the first of its kind to screen nationally in theatres across New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory.

“Films are a fantastic window into different worlds and cultures and we’re beyond excited to partner with this great new event to share not only the film-making talent of Latin America but also share the region’s stories with an Australian audience,” says Katherine Garces, founder of Boutique South America.

The festival will showcase thirty four films from eleven different Latin American countries and host several side events including opening and closing nights in each capital city as well as a focus on specific films and regions - six films have been selected from the Hola Mexico Film Festival and four films about the continent’s sporting passion make up the ‘Focus on Football.’

Cine Latino will screen on different dates in each city during the month of August and will open nationally on the 9th of August in Sydney.

Boutique South America will sponsor the event and is also giving interested filmgoers or travellers the chance to win a double pass to the opening night of Cine Latino in their home state.

Valued at $80, the prize includes viewing the premiere of the opening night film ‘Neruda’ plus a sampling of Latin American food, wine and music hosted by Palace Cinemas.

All you need to do is complete your details and answer the simple question “What 3 words would you use to describe Latin America?’ to be in the running.

Entries close 5 pm 3rd of August.
