CINELATINO Film Festival

Curtain up for cinematic discoveries from Latin America and Spain!

CINELATINO is the largest film festival for Spanish and Latin American cinema in Germany and takes place from April 22 to April 29 at the Kommunales Kino in Freiburg.

Every year, we focus on a specific country and a specific theme:

In 2026, we are focusing on human rights in Latin America. The films we show deal with aspects such as the violation of a country's sovereignty, the Cuban diaspora in Spain or the disappearance of Salvadoran children.

The country focus this year is on Uruguay. Cinematic voices from Uruguay convince with subtle humor and also deal with socially critical topics.

In addition to these focal points, we will of course also be showing numerous other Latin American and Spanish films.

See you soon at the movies!
