Cinema Tropical, Socrates Sculpture Park and Ocularis proudly present
Cine Movil – New York City’s 2nd annual open-air film
festival showcasing world-class Latin American films, food, culture
and music.
During the heyday of the U.S. drive-in, people drove to see movies
on the big screen. In rural parts of Latin America, the Cine Movil
(mobile cinema) drove the cinema to the people, presenting outdoor
screenings in plazas and parks. Cine Movil brings this popular tradition
to New York with three nights of exemplary Latin American films,
screened under the stars.
These free, open-air screenings will feature:
-
Contemporary Latin American films (in Spanish or Portuguese
with English subtitles)
-
Latin American cuisine provided by local restaurants.
-
Latin musicians play as audiences set up blankets to enjoy
the screening
