Havana Glasgow Film Festival have been a fan of the work of Cuban filmmaker, writer and political satirist Eduardo Del Llano for the last decade and are delighted that he is able to join us in Glasgow for this event and to screen his films in the evening.
Both Del Llano's writing and films are renowned for their subtle sense of humour and a literary register that swings effortlessly between the highly cultivated to the highly colloquial. Del Llano possesses deep knowledge of the Cuban experience, but also has the capacity to move away and look at it from the inside and outside. He represents a unique emergent independent cinema voice in Cuba whose work functions as a sort of "in-between-ness".
His self-deprecating humour and way of looking at things chimes with the Glasgow psyche, and so he will be joined in conversation by David Archibald, proletarian Professor at the University of Glasgow and member of The Tenementals, a band of academics and musicians who came together to delve into the history of Glasgow through the power of music.
