The 2026 HSBC Spanish and Latin American Film Festival presented by Palace returns 11 June - 1 July with a curated selection of films from Spain and Latin America set to screen Luna Cinemas Leederville and Luna on SX.

This year's festival includes award-winning dramas, a rom-com starring one of the most well-known Latin American actors, a historical epic, salsa documentary, and more!

 direct from the 2026 Berlin International Film Festival, is an intoxicating drama imbued with wine. It follows talented sommelier Isabel (Marina Person, who also co-wrote the script) in São Paulo’s fine-dining scene who dreams of opening her own wine bar away from her controlling boss. However, she must balance following her passion with the realities of opening a business. 

Set against the backdrop of a corporate crisis,

 is an intimate and charming love story starring Gael García Bernal and Natalia Oreiro, from Argentina and Uruguay. In the first time the two popular actors have appeared on screen together, they star as colleagues on conference at a beach resort in Mexico faced with the fragile balance between personal freedom and social expectations.

From award-winning director Alejandro Amenábar, comes the epic historical adventure 

the Festival Special Presentation. The ambitious and thrilling drama starring Julio Peña (

) follows a young Miguel de Cervantes, author of 

, who finds an unexpected refuge in the art of storytelling while imprisoned in 16th Century Algiers.

 is a vivid documentary, from Colombia and the USA via Havana, that tells the story of two cities bound by the rhythm of salsa.  From New York City, where the genre was born in the 1970s, to Cali, Colombia, the self-proclaimed “world capital of salsa” where it thrives with unmatched passion. The evolution of the genre is an illuminating journey of cultural heritage, music and dance, much like the global 1990s hit 

¡Viva la fiesta! The 2026 HSBC Spanish and Latin American Film Festival returns 11 June - 1 July.
