THE FILMS
Chema Garcia Ibarra is a strange genius. Celebrated in Sundance, Berlinale and Cannes the Elche creator visits Scotland for a retrospective on his films.
Cinemaattic organise a special retrospective programme of short films with the presence of the director as well as key shorts that have influenced his work.
With “El ataque de los robots de Nebulosa 5” Chema García Ibarra turned all the heads in the world towards Elche and towards his own way of understanding lo-fi science fiction, tragicomic custom and manners and film in general. From then on, this script-writer and director hasn’t stopped adding salt to the wound made by that first title with other (equally good) short films such as “Protopartículas” and “Misterio”; or “La Disco Resplandece” (The Disco Shines), named by many as one of the best of films of last year.
Pretty thrilled to have Chema with us, to introduce us to one of the most original minds in Spanish cinema these days.
#MEDITERRANEO
A retrospective organised by Cinemaattic. In partnership with IVAC – Filmoteca de Valencia and Generalitat Valenciana. We will show the unique creativity hub of Valencia, bringing masters that are putting Spain’s East Coast in the international map.

We promote independent cinema in an interactive and socially engaged environment.
