One of the most vibrant film festivals in the calendar, the Latin American Film Festival takes place every year at the Curzon Cinemas and other venues around London, bringing together the best of contemporary Latin American cinema with an exciting line up of films.

The Latin American Film Festival Ltd. is a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting the distribution and appreciation of Latin American films in the UK. This London based festival showcases the best of new Latin American cinema each year.

The film screenings and associated events we organise also raise awareness about Latin American culture and provide a positive image of one of the minority communities in the UK.

Recognising that there was a wealth of Latin American cinema that never got distribution in the UK, Eva Tarr Kirkhope, together with her late husband Tony Kirkhope, founded the Latin American Film Festival in 1990. Since then, the festival has grown from strength to strength, becoming one of the biggest festivals of its kind outside Spanish speaking countries and bringing together the best of contemporary Latin American cinema.
