ﾃ］gel Sala (born 1964) is the director of the Sitges Film Festival. [1]
A Serbian Film was banned by a court in San Sebastiﾃ｡n, Spain for "threatening sexual freedom" and thus could not be shown in the XXI Semana de Cine Fantﾃ｡stico y de Terror (21st Horror and Fantasy Film Festival). [2] The film was shown at an adults-only screening at the Spanish Sitges Film Festival during October 2010. As a result, the festival's director ﾃ］gel Sala was charged with exhibiting child pornography by the Spanish prosecutor who decided to take action in May 2011 after receiving a complaint from a Roman Catholic organization over a pair of scenes involving the rapes of a young child and a newborn. [3] The charges were later dropped. [4]
Paradoxically, film was awarded in others festivals like the Fantasporto in Porto, Portugal. [5] [6] Film was presented in 40 countries, and only in Spain had this problem. [7]
Several directors of different film festivals ( Sevilla, San Sebastiﾃ｡n, Valladolid, Mﾃ｡laga, Pamplona, Huelva and Granada, etc.) sent letters to Salas showing their support. [8]
He has written several books about films. [9] It includes Tiburﾃｳn: Vas a necesitar un barco mﾃ｡s grande!: el filme que cambiﾃｳ Hollywood (2005), about the film Jaws (1975); [10] [11] Profanando el sueﾃｱo de los muertos: la historia jamﾃ｡s contada del cine fantﾃ｡stico espaﾃｱol (2010), about Spanish cinema; [12] [13] and Just imagine: 50 tﾃｭtulos esenciales del cine de ciencia ficciﾃｳn (2017), about science fiction films.
