SALAD DAYS (DESALINADA) Shorts Competition

Whatever is going on in Latin cinema, we can only hope it’s contagious. From the hundreds of Latin submissions, we are proud to present eight of the very best. WEDDING NIGHT: Passion multiplies during a wedding night. BAMBOLEHO: Inspired by the book The Baron of the Trees, by ltalo Calvino. ROGELIO: A dead man doesn’t know he’s dead. CAKE: A special birthday cake fuels an unexpected love triangle. SALAD DAYS: A mixed salad and a trout meet in the cold storage of a restaurant. They decide to unite in a single dish that will lead them to eternal love. PETER RABBIT AND THE CRUCIFIX: Nino was a good boy until one day when he kicked his bunny. MR X: Mr. X is pregnant…Will he get to the hospital in time? And finally, the cinematically inventive PALINDROME: A single day, during which a man loses everything he has. An ordinary story told in an unusual way. Whether or not you speak the language, this program should not be missed.
