FICCMOTECA is born, a new initiative fruit of the collaboration between the Department of Culture of the City of Cartagena, the Film Commission of Cartagena and the FICC.

FICCMOTECA intends to gather the witness of the legendary Cine Club Hannibal, a collective that filled our city with good cinema for many years and that made it possible for cinema fans to enjoy movies that did not reach the commercial halls of Cartagena.

In this line of work, and with the same illusion, FICCMOTECA, which will project free films in original version subtitled in Spanish in the Hall of Events of the Cultural Center Ramón Alonso Luzzy.

'Incendies' tells the story of Jeanne and Simon Marwan, two twins living in Canada whose mother Nawal has just passed away.

In the act of opening the will, the notary gives them two letters that must be given to a father whom they believed to be dead and to a brother whose existence they did not know.

Jeanne decides then to embark on a trip to Lebanon to try to locate them and find answers to its existence, but Simon does not want to know anything of the subject.

Based on the work of the same title by Wajdi Mouawad, she was nominated for Best Non-English Film in 2010.

After the screening of 'Incendies', at 8:15 pm, there will be a small act of homage to the Cine Club Hannibal for the magnificent work done over so many years, a brief ceremony that will feature the intervention of the Festival director Of Cinema de Cartagena, Esther Baeza, FICC Vice-President Sergio Matínez, who will gloss over what Cine Club Hannibal meant for Cartagena, a representative of the Cine Club team, and the Councilor for Culture, David Martínez, who will close the speeches .

Then the film 'Neruda' will be screened.

'Neruda' (Chile, 2016).

20:45 hours 'Neruda' is the work of Pablo Larraín, one of the most original directors of the moment.

With his own style, and after filming films like 'Fuga', 'Tony Manero', 'Post Mortem', 'No' and 'The Club', and before making his debut in Hollywood with 'Jackie', the talented Chilean director filmed this Biopic around the figure of the poet.

The film begins in the year 1948, at which time Neruda accuses the Chilean government of betraying the communists in the congress.

President González Videla deflects him and orders his capture.

The poet undertakes the flight of the country with his wife.

While being persecuted by the prefect of the police, Neruda begins to write 'General song' and becomes symbol of the freedom and literary legend.
