In October, Instituto Cervantes is collaborating for a third year with FIVER (Festival de Cine, Danza y Nuevos Medios) to present a cycle of short films: La mirada de ellas: 10 años de cinedanza en España, curated by FIVER director Samuel Retortillo. The screenings are among the activities celebrating the tenth anniversary of Baila España, held annually in the city of Bremen, Germany. FIVER, an international platform for the support, production, and exhibition of film and dance, promotes choreographic-audiovisual creation through the professionalization of the “cinedance” genre. The 2021 retrospective features ten short films directed by women selected as recipients of, or finalists for, awards by FIVER between 2012 and 2021.
