AL(U)CINE: ALCINE'S MICROFESTIVAL OF FANTASY AND HORROR FILMS
The ALCINE warm-up event returns as a mini-festival dedicated to genre cinema, featuring two screenings. In the first, and in partnership with FlixOlé, we will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Chicho Ibáñez Serrador’s classic ¿Quién puede matar a un niño? (1976)—attended by his son, Alejandro Ibáñez—and pay tribute to the great Manolo Solo by revisiting one of his most distinctive forays into horror: the multi-award-winning short film El tren de la bruja (2003), presented by its director, Koldo Serra (Reina Roja, La casa de papel…). The second screening will host the now-classic short film competition, where the audience votes for the best fantasy or horror short to receive the award presented by Cimuart/General Foundation of the University of Alcalá. The entire event will be hosted by the familiar duo of Karim Shaker and Marta Salvador.
