This choice demonstrates Atresmedia’s commitment to showcasing diverse perspectives in film. Alongside these films, Atresmedia Group will also take the opportunity to present the new series "Sira," reflecting the company's ongoing efforts to expand its television offerings alongside its film presentations. The San Sebastián Film Festival, which celebrates international cinema, provides Atresmedia with an ideal platform to reach audiences and industry professionals alike, highlighting the growth and variety of Spanish-language films on the global stage. The festival will run from September 22 to 30, bringing together filmmakers, critics, and audiences in a celebration of new cinematic achievements.
