The Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival (ESFF) has unveiled the programme for its 12th edition, boasting 17 screenings, a swathe of guests, roundtable discussions and cultural events to provide a holistic view of Spanish language cinema.

Watched Slade In Flame (bfi Player). There's a tough-edged boyz in the band element but underscored by bleakness. A melancholic Hard Day's Night
