CinemaTrans returns to La Laguna in Tenerife. This is the fifth edition of this trans cinema showcase. The event celebrates trans culture and visibility.

The program includes screenings of trans films. Important debates on community issues will also take place. These debates are spaces to hear different voices and experiences.

Film directors, actors and trans activists participate. These people share their stories and art. Their presence makes the festival very special and authentic.

CinemaTrans is a very important cultural event in the Canary Islands. It gives visibility to trans people through cinema. Film is a powerful tool for social change.

La Laguna is an open and diverse city. It is a good place for this type of cultural event. The local LGBTQ+ community strongly supports the festival.

The festival also creates a safe space for reflection. People can learn about trans realities. This helps combat discrimination and prejudice.

Trans cinema tells stories normally unseen elsewhere. It shows real experiences of trans people. This is very necessary in today's society.

CinemaTrans is more than just a film festival. It is an act of resistance and celebration. It celebrates the identity, diversity and dignity of trans people.

If you are in Tenerife, do not miss this event. It is a unique opportunity to discover trans cinema. And to support the trans community of the islands.
