Latin America Film Week to open in Hanoi

The week will screen films from nine countries – Venezuela, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay, Panama, Cuba, Argentina, and Peru.

Chile’s Ambassador to Vietnam Claudio Quintana said despite using a common Spanish, each country in Latin America has unique historic and cultural features. Films screened feature many categories – mainstream, comedy, cartoon, documentary and history and among others – displaying social life, cultural characteristics of each nation and help Vietnamese understand the cultural diversity of Latin America. Tickets are offered free by embassies.
