The Huelva Ibero-American Film Festival [1] (Spanish: Festival de Cine Iberoamericano de Huelva), held since 1975 in Huelva, Spain, is the oldest film festival in Europe dedicated to the Ibero-American cinema. [2]

Contents

During the first editions, it was known as Semana de Cine Iberoamericano (transl. Ibero-American Film Week). [3] The festival was originally organised by a private entity, the Cine-Club Huelva. [4] Upon the creation of the governing Fundación del Festival de Cine Iberoamericano de Huelva, and the ensuing constitution of the board of trustees, the festival is primarily funded by the Ayuntamiento de Huelva  [ es ], the Provincial Deputation of Huelva, the Junta of Andalusia and the Spanish Ministry of Culture, as well as a number of private donors. [5]

The festival is chiefly publicly funded. [6] The grand prize is the 'Golden Columbus' (Colón de Oro) for best feature. Other awards include: best director, best male lead, best female lead, best script, best photography and best short film. [7]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cinema of Chile</span> Filmmaking in Chile

Chilean cinema refers to all films produced in Chile or made by Chileans. It had its origins at the start of the 20th century with the first Chilean film screening in 1902 and the first Chilean feature film appearing in 1910. The oldest surviving feature is El Húsar de la Muerte (1925), and the last silent film was Patrullas de Avanzada (1931). The Chilean film industry struggled in the late 1940s and in the 1950s, despite some box-office successes such as El Diamante de Maharajá. The 1960s saw the development of the "New Chilean Cinema", with films like Three Sad Tigers (1968), Jackal of Nahueltoro (1969) and Valparaíso mi amor (1969). After the 1973 military coup, film production was low, with many filmmakers working in exile. It increased after the end of the Pinochet regime in 1989, with occasional critical and/or popular successes such as Johnny cien pesos (1993), Historias de Fútbol (1997) and Gringuito (1998).
