To celebrate the National Day of Mexican Cinema on 15 Aug, we’ve teamed up with the Mexican Embassy in UK and the Cineteca Nacional in Mexico City to bring you a spectacular season of Mexican Golden Age Cinema. This introduction will give an insight into the enormously creative and commercially successful period in Mexico between the 1930s and 1950s, through a look at some key figures and films from the era.
Led by Dr Niamh Thornton, Reader in Latin American Studies, University of Liverpool.
This talk will be followed by a screening of The Night Falls, please note a separate ticket is required for the film.
