Mar del Plata, Festival Internacional de Cine de
En algún momento del último año el INCAA dejó de pagar los cargos mensuales por las cuentas de Vimeo e Issuu que alojaban archivos de las ediciones pasadas del Festival Internacional de Cine de Mar del Plata.

Museo acéfalo busca
Las incertidumbres sobre la continuidad de Paula Félix-Didier como directora del Museo del Cine comenzaron a resolverse de una forma por lo menos anticlimática: un breve comunicado de PFD del viernes 19 de junio confirmaba que deja el cargo, aclaraba que sigue “en el equipo que sostiene este espacio” y agradecía “a la ministra Gabriela Ricardes por el diálogo en este proceso, y a esta comunidad por su cariño de siempre”.

Homo Argentum
UNA PELI PARA VOS, QUE SOS ICONOCLASTA Y NO ALINEADO Hasta hace pocos días la promoción de Homo Argentum pasaba mayormente por la idea de unir lo supuestamente imposible de unir en una sola película, con el simple propósito de convocar a la mayor cantidad posible de espectadores en un contexto especialmente complicado. A mediados de junio, Clarín compartió como “adelanto exclusivo” el trailer junto a algunas de las primeras declaraciones de los directores, Mariano Cohn y Gastón Duprat.

Latinx Heritage Month: Where Can I Celebrate?
We are all familiar with important dates throughout the year such as Black History Month, which starts on February 1, or Women’s History Month, which begins on March 1.

Who made this strange decision?
The Green Scarf: A Powerful Symbol for Latin American Feminists
Abortion has been around for centuries, whether people want to admit it or not. However, as we well know, the stance on this controversial subject fluctuates between countries and states —Even households can’t find a common ground. What this means is that women’s rights are at risk no matter how safe we believe they are. Just look at Roe v. Wade overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2022, making abortion no longer a constitutionally established right.
Goyo
UN CINEASTA POSIMPRESIONISTA DEL SIGLO XXI Pasaron solamente once años y ocho películas desde Corazón de león (por poner una referencia llamativa, nomás), y no existe en lo que va de este siglo otro director argentino con una filmografía tan prolífica y sostenida en el éxito como la de Marcos Carnevale.
The Female Gaze: Frida Kahlo Through Six Paintings
Bigger Than Life Frida Kahlo’s art was always revealing the dramatic events in her life, and the strong feelings they produced within her: the chronic pain and health problems produced by the accident she suffered at 18, the often counterproductive efforts to ease them, and the strong but complicated relationship she had with her husband and fellow artist, Diego Rivera, which was constantly in the public eye and intertwining with their artistic processes.

Meet The 12 Latinas on The BBC’s 100 Women List of 2023

Public Latino Community Radio Stations You Should Listen To
The audio listening world has come a long way from analog radio to podcasts and new audio technology apps like Clubhouse, a new type of social network based on voice—where people around the world come together to talk, listen and learn.

Today, you will still find a radio blaring in the kitchen of most Latin American households both in and out of the United States.

5 Books Every Single Latina Needs To Read
Books have the power to inform, inspire, and motivate us. It’s no surprise then that we reach for self-help books when trying to navigate the complexities of love.

Singledom is a time and place in our lives that should be understood, honored, and celebrated for the single Latina.
5 Must-Read Books by Indigenous Authors

Life As A Latina Rocker
I was 11-years-old when I attended my first concert. It was an intense night in the Rio Grande Valley with cover bands that were the Latino versions of AC/DC, Guns n’ Roses and Metallica.
