Volcano Cinema: Of Eruptions and Other Stories returns to the Latin Connections Film Festival with a powerful new selection of short films.

📅 Wed 11th June / 19:30 Doors – 20:30 Start

📍 Leith Dockers Club, Academy St, Edinburgh EH6 7EF

A programme that showcases the diverse ways volcanoes have been documented and reimagined through film. Displacing the central role of the disaster movie, the programme approaches volcanoes and their metaphoric power from different landscapes, cultural mythologies, and with potency and provocation. All this happening at the legendary Leith Dockers, with live music, just like last year, becoming a new tradition in the festival.

This screening is presented in collaboration between CinemaAttic and the Ixchel project as part of the Latin Connections Film Festival, and will feature an introduction by Charlotte Gleghorn (University of Edinburgh), Ixchel Project team member.

All short films include English subtitles and closed captions for D/deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences.
