Eurocine Film Festival

The 19th edition of the Eurocine film festival runs in Bogotá from April 17-28 and features more than 60 films from around Europe, with a special emphasis on road movies and Dutch films. Five films from different nations, including The Trip to Nowhere (Spain), Rabat (Netherlands), All That Remains (Switzerland), Road North (Finland) and The Ride (Czech Republic) comprise the special road movie section inspired by the philosophy that “all travel is a search and a discovery through which we can walk down our own darkest trails.”

As this year’s special guest country, the Netherlands will participate with six films in the Official Section and eight others in various categories. Prolific producer Jan van der Zanden, who has helped create more than 40 films through his Waterland Films production house, will make an appearance at the festival. Additionally, a special seven-film retrospective will pay homage to Dutch actress Monic Hendrickx.

Multiple bastions of arthouse and independent film will host the festival including Cinema Paraiso in Usaquén, InVitro in Chapinero, La Puerta Grande in the Parque de la 93 and downtown’s Cinemateca Distrital, among others.
