The INSTAR Film Festival is an annual event organized by the Hannah Arendt Institute of Artivism (INSTAR), a collective founded by artist Tania Bruguera in 2015. The festival supports independent cinema production on an international scale, focusing on countries where art and freedom of expression is threatened. It favors works addressing difficult themes with daring aesthetics, as well as hybrid pieces exploring new paths in filmmaking.<\/span><\/p>

The fourth edition of the INSTAR Film Festival will be held from December 4 to 10, 2023. Happening simultaneously at venues in Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Miami, New York, Paris, S\u00e3o Paulo, and via Festhome in Cuba, the concept guiding this edition is the transnational character of the New Cuban Cinema. We want to enhance the ongoing dialogue such films have with other cinematographies, especially those of countries also ruled by authoritarian governments, and foster spaces for exchange between Cuban filmmakers and their counterparts from the Global South.<\/span><\/p>

In competition, there are fifteen recent films by artists from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Haiti, Iran and Italy. An international jury will award the Nicol\u00e1s Guill\u00e9n Landri\u00e1n Prize to the film that best reflects and explores, through cinematic language, a taboo topic in their society. With this initiative, INSTAR pays tribute to the relevant work of Guill\u00e9n Landri\u00e1n, a Cuban documentary filmmaker and painter (Cuba, 1938\u2013United States, 2003).<\/span><\/p>

The festival will also screen thirteen other films as Special Presentations. This section includes a retrospective of Fernando and Mi\u00f1uca Villaverde, a couple of Cuban filmmakers exiled since 1965. We will present five of their films produced in the United States in the 1970s and 1980s, several of them associated with the experimental and underground New York film scene of the period. Our companion program comprises masterclasses, workshops, and public debates.<\/span><\/p>

The INSTAR Film Festival aims to promote and give visibility to Cuban Independent Cinema, a movement created under a repressive climate, censorship, and precarious production conditions. In recent decades, international recognition for this movement has grown, with awards and selections at leading film festivals.<\/span><\/p>

The first edition of the festival took place in Havana in December 2019 and was directed by actress and writer Lynn Cruz. After the hiatus caused by the pandemic, the event resumed in 2021 as an online festival through the Festhome platform. Ever since filmmaker Jos\u00e9 Luis Aparicio has been in charge of the project as its curator and artistic director. The third edition, held in July of 2022 at documenta fifteen in Kassel, Germany, featured the exhibition Land Without Images, which would become the largest retrospective of alternative Cuban cinema to date, screening more than 160 audiovisual works.<\/span><\/p>
