Granada, thanks to its fascinating history and exceptional geographical location, makes a magnificent film set. Our beautiful city is also an extraordinary place to hold a cinema event, encounters between young professionals and the public, of the calibre of the International Young Filmakers Festival of Granada.

We encourage all of you to participate in this year’s festival. You will find little gems to everyone’s liking, a wide variety of contents in which people of all types and all ages will find something to delight them. I am sure that the works screened will move you, amuse you and also make you think.

For further information regarding the programme visit the Festival Website.

To participate in our competiton become a fan of the Escuela Montalbán Facebook site and participate in the promotion.

Exhibition at the Palacio Carlos V. (Alhambra)
Joaquín Sorolla: "Jardines de la Luz"

The exhibition retraces the encounter between Joaquín Sorolla and Andalusia – its millenarian culture, the landscapes of the Sierra Nevada, the Arab courtyards and gardens of the Alhambra, and the Alcazar of Seville all providing inspiration and material in the form of clear, lyrical visions. In these compositions, human presence is banished and flora, marble, tiles, light and colours all come to life. The artist’s brush conveys reflections on water, light filtering through and dissolving geometrical architecture, and the colourful mosaic of the southern garden.
