Highlights include a Friday evening programme of films and discussion relating to Cuba’s unique approach to sustainability. Rebecca Heidenberg, Director of Queens of the Revolution will join us for a live streamed Q&A on Sunday night to discuss her portrait of a cultural centre that paved the road for LGBTQ+ rights in Cuba. The featured director this year is acclaimed filmmaker Arturo Sotto, who will present four of his films live at the Festival, including the film noir Nido de Mantes / The Wasp Nest.
