Description

Join us for the official launch of the Latin America & Spain Film Festival (LASFF) in Blenheim with the Chilean entry. Tickets are free!

Designation of Origin (Denominación de Origen)
Chile | Comedy | Spanish with English subtitles | 86 minutes

After being unjustly stripped of the prize for Chile's best longaniza sausage, the small town of San Carlos sparks a spontaneous social movement to reclaim their "Denomination of Origin" - and their pride. A warm, funny look at community, identity, and standing up for what's yours.

Directed by Tomás Alzamora Muñoz. Presented as part of the Latin America & Spain Film Festival (LASFF), brought to you by the Embassy of Chile to New Zealand.

The Marlborough Multicultural Centre is a non for profit organisation dedicated to fostering social unity and a sense of belonging. We achieve this by collaborating with government and community services to establish a secure and inclusive space for diverse multicultural communities.

In 2006, in response to significant demographic changes, Marlborough emerged as one of seven regions selected to spearhead a pioneering "Settling to Initiative" project initiated by the Ministry of Social Development in partnership with various central and local government agencies. This endeavour aimed to address the challenges faced by newcomers and their integration into the local communities, ultimately revealing a pressing demand for assistance and information.

Since its inception in January 2006, our centre has remained steadfast in its commitment to bringing people together, providing companionship and assistance, and championing the celebration of cultural diversity within the Marlborough community.
