El Gobierno ha dilapidado nuestros impuestos, disparando las subvenciones al cine español en más de 250 millones mientras la taquilla ha caído otro 25%. No se recauda ni un tercio de lo que se gasta. El mercado habla, las élites zurdas a lo suyo. Es una industria, la del entretenimiento que sale al mercado dopada.

Screening Ban of Pro-Palestinian Film Casts Shadow Over Spain's Goya Awards, by Jennifer Green

The Cardinal of Madrid cancelled a planned screening of a Goya-nominated short film that has received support from the pro-Palestinian BDS group.

The documentary shorts category rarely grabs headlines at awards show, but the night before Spain's equivalent of the Oscars, the Goyas, everyone is talking about an 18-minute film about life in the Gaza Strip.

Gaza has become the center of a controversy after a planned screening of the film in Madrid on Friday was canceled, with critics accusing the film of anti-Semitism and the filmmakers making claims of threats and censorship.

The pro-Palestine activist group BDS, which provided promotional support for the film, organized the screening. BDS, whose initials stand for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions has called for the global community to cut cultural ties with Israel in protest of the country's treatment of Palestinians in Israel and the the occupied territories.

BDS has been in industry news in recent months over its support for different cultural boycotts of Israel, including the annual pan-European song competition Eurovision, slated to take place in Tel Aviv in May.

On the eve of the Goyas, BDS had organized a screening of the short film in a pastoral center in Madrid. But the center put out a statement midday on Friday saying they had been ordered by the Cardinal of Madrid to cancel the screening. Representatives for the office of the Archdiocese of Madrid confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter they had asked the center not to show the film but declined to comment further.
