21st Latin Beat Film Festival in TIFF
 
共催/提携
For this 21st edition, we are growing with more films. From musicals to drama, drug trafficking to transgenderism to politics, there are a variety of themes common to all editions of LBFF.
Two beautiful but very different documentaries, each featuring animals, stand out. Fear is the new theme of this program, “MÓRBIDO”. It is a pity that the wonderful Chain Reactions is not in Latin, but it doesn’t really matter. We just want the audience to enjoy in the cinema.
