Running from November 5th to 13th, this celebration of cinema is sure to provide plenty of unknown gems for even the biggest expert on Spanish movies.

Alcine - also known as the Alcala de Henares/Communidad de Madrid International Film Festival - is not about promoting mainstream flicks, it is a platform for experimental filmmakers and those who might not otherwise have a chance to be seen.

What's on When pointed out that there is a strong emphasis on showing short pictures, with the occasion becoming more and more popular every year.
