SUMMARY:Cuban Film Festival 2025:
DESCRIPTION:\nStep into the vibrant, resilient world of Cuban cinema this July, as The New Theatre proudly hosts this year’s three-day film festival celebrating the enduring artistry of the island nation. \n\n\n\nFrom July 25th to 27th, we invite you to explore the rich tapestry of Cuban storytelling, a testament to the creative spirit that thrives even under the weight of an ongoing embargo.\n\n\n\nFor over six decades, the United States has maintained a comprehensive economic, commercial, and financial embargo against Cuba. While often framed in economic and diplomatic terms, this blockade has had a profound impact on the island’s artistic and cultural landscape. Access to essential equipment, distribution networks, and even basic materials for filmmaking has been severely curtailed, forcing Cuban artists to innovate, adapt, and rely on an extraordinary wellspring of internal talent and ingenuity.\n\n\n\nJoin us as we showcase a curated selection of films, highlighting Cuban artists’ continued accomplishments:\n\n\n\nOrganised by the Dublin Branch of the Communist Party of Ireland. Supported by the Embassy of the Republic of Cuba Ireland and the Cuban Institute of Art and Film Industry (ICAIC).\n\n\n\nFriday July 25th 18:00 – Film Screening & Social\n\n\n\n\nOn our opening night we’re delighted to host the Irish premiere of Cuban documentary, La Raiz Del Olivo / The Root of the Olive Tree (2024), which explores the spirit, memory, and culture of the Palestinian people currently marooned in Cuba since the destruction of their homes following Oct 7th.\n\n\n\n\nProceeds of the screenings will go towards the continued medical aid and cultural support for Cuba.\n\n\n\nBook your tickets now: https://takeyourseats.ticketsolve.com/ticketbooth/shows/873675055 \n
