The 14th Irish Latin American Film Festival 2013 will take place once again in Belfast and Dublin, featuring shorts and documentaries about this most interesting continent. Latin America was the first to experience the disastrous impact of neoliberal masochism (that we are now experiencing in Ireland with an apathetic attitude) and the first to revolt against it. An example in this Festival is Water Rising and the resistance to privatization of water in Bolivia. It has seen a resounding return for Chávez, Morales and Correa. They have made corporations and the well-off pay their taxes (receipts have almost double in six years) raising public investment to 15% of national income, extending public ownership and re-regulating the banking system to support development!

Admission is free to this bilingual Film Festival, but attendees are requested to be on time for the screenings.

A new feature this year is Director Focus. Water Rising is a co-production between Muireann de Barra and Aisling Crudden. It will be preceded by Muralistas, directed and produced by Muireann, who is a fluent Irish speaker. It was her debut film and was awarded a Jesuit young filmmaker award in 2000. This was the short film that instigated The 1st Irish Latin American Film Festival all those years ago. It generated great excitement and a full house in 2000 at its screening in the IFI [www.ifi.ie]

Country focus in 2013 will be Nicaragua, an impoverished country in Central America, and with a paucity of film output. Nevertheless, its influence on filmmakers elsewhere will be appropriately represented at the Festival. Irish will be accompanied with another EU language that we respect, namely Euskera, and it will feature in the inspiring short film, El Método Julio.

Once again, The Festival acknowledges the co-operation and goodwill of all the filmmakers whose films make up the programme - go raibh mile maith agaibh.
