The club house at Divi Links hosted an under-the-stars closing party for the Aruba International Film Festival attended by talent, press and sponsors.
Executive Producer Jonathan Vieira, and Director Claudio Masenza, joined Divi Resort’s Managing Director Alex Nieuwmeyer in thanking all those who contributed to the successful week-long program, and to the promotion of Aruba as a center of art, culture and creativity.
Actress Virginia Madsen, actor Ray Liotta, and Xavier Samuels, were among glittering stars gracing the festival with their presence, along with directors Alexander Giraldo and Pim De La Parra, choreographer Lavelle Smith Jr., in addition to the AIFF concert series starring Juanes, Marc Anthony, DJ Chuckie and comedian Raymann.
Next year, Vieira reports, the festival will continue to grow, featuring once again diverse, award-winning international films and shorts with a spotlight on Caribbean productions. More programs will be targeting the island youth teaching art appreciation and understanding.
