LA HOGUERA INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF INDEPENDENT AND AUTEUR CINEMA OF CATRAL

IDENTITY

La Hoguera International Festival of Independent and Auteur Cinema of Catral (hereinafter referred to as “Festival La Hoguera”) was established in Catral (Alicante) to create a space for cinema that asks no permission: cinema made with conviction and a personal point of view, that embraces formal experimentation, and that stands apart from strictly commercial circuits.
