The Cana Dorada International Film & Music Festival is happening from Thursday, 16 January to Monday, 20 January 2020 in Cap Cana, in southern Punta Cana. The festival is hosted in Eden Roc Cap Cana.
The organizers say that the main purpose of the festival is to create a bridge between the Latin entertainment into the global and Hollywood industry. The event is a platform for actors, producers, film-makers, directors, artists and investors to create strong networks and new opportunities, say promoters Raquel Flores and actor Fernando Colunga. Among the international participants are Avi Lerner, Allen Shapiro, Mark Canton, Dorothy Canton, Cheryl B. Isaacs, Maurice Fadida, Sophie Watts, and Darina Pavlova.
The festival opens with the documentary “Santo Domingo.”. The documentary tells of the colonizing of the island by the Spanish conquistadors from 1492 to 1551. The script is by journalist Huchi Lora and José Pintor and focuses on the importance of the first colonial settlement in Santo Domingo and the defense of human rights of the natives.
