The 19th annual Marbella International Film Festival will kick off this October and feature 40 films from all over the world, including the United States of America, Canada, Italy, Iran, the UK, and many more.
This year’s festival, a five-day experience that kicks off on October 2 in Marbella, Spain, will screen a vast variety of films, including work from the likes of Sir Anthony Hopkins (Freud’s Last Session) and Diane Keaton (Arthur’s Whisky).
The festival will also host the premiere of I Am Much More, a documentary shot and set in Marbella. Set in November 2023, the film follows fifteen children from Africa who were invited by Aloha College in Marbella to spend Christmas with local host families. I Am Much More is narrated by Larry Lamb and produced by New World Films.
According to the festival’s official website, the Marbella International Film Festival is the flagship project of New World Trust, an organization created to provide support for talented artists across the globe.
“The objective of the trust is to provide start-up capital for independent art projects, offering hands-on support in all commercial aspects,” the website reads. “The support system includes assistance in marketing, project, and financial management, business angles, agents and distribution networking, and trying to overcome any other obstacles which potentially hinder the artist’s ability to create.”
