Celebrating the Opening of the 23rd Latin America & Spain Film Festival (LASFF) 🎬✨
Last night we attended the opening of the 23rd edition of LASFF in New Zealand, beautifully opened by H.E. Alfredo Pérez Bravo, Ambassador of Mexico and Dean of the Diplomatic Corps, accompanied by Dra. Julieta Cervantes.
It was wonderful to see the Mexican and Japanese Ambassadors, the Spanish and Colombian Consuls, and the Head of Faculty of the Social Studies Department at AUT join this special evening.
🎥 About Latin America and Spain Film Festival
LASFF is a non-profit festival bringing 8 films from 8 nations (Spain, Peru, Cuba, Chile, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia) to 10 cities across NZ — from September to November — with free entry. For 23 years, it has showcased diverse stories to help New Zealand audiences connect with our cultures.
Special thanks to Gloria Vázquez and Elba Ramírez for their wonderful work organising and coordinating this event.
✨ Looking forward to the screenings across the country in the coming weeks!
