Melbourne: 14 - 25th May

Dear Amigos!

Welcome to the 2008 Spanish Film Festival website! This year we celebrate our 11th year with another season of award-winning, entertaining, provocative and beautiful films screening at Palace Cinema Como and Palace Westgarth.

This year's selection provides a diverse and vibrant overview of today's Spanish film production, with 29 features, three documentaries, and two programmes of short films.

Our opening night selection is the award-winning, box office smash Seven Billiard Tables, which features one of the great Spanish actresses Maribel Verdú as a wife and mother who is forced to make some life-changing decisions.

Don't miss our special events! Mad Mex, A Tribute to Argentina, the International Premiere of Burning the Strait, and the remarkable Closing Night Gala film The Orphanage, the thrilling highlight of this year's 5-film Cine Fantástico strand.
