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.
The festival does not seek products designed to fit commercial expectations, but films with a voice. Works that burn from within. During the festival, Catral becomes a meeting point between filmmakers and audiences who understand cinema as an act of freedom: films made out of necessity, not formula.
Because, before becoming an industry, cinema was, and still is, people gathered in the dark around a story.
