Pantalla Fantasma 4 Programme Announced

The programme of the 2015 Pantalla Fantasma festival has been announced. I was on the selection committee for this edition along with Sandra Cuesta and festival director Jorge Núñez (who, by the way, is also a terrific filmmaker in his own right).

The festival will take place in Bilbao, January 19th-24th. It is defined as: 'a film festival open to strange, border, extreme, outsider audiovisual pieces with a boundary, experimental and subversive nature, and a minimum of 40 minutes length'.
