Description

Cheers Cinema is more than a project; it’s a passion born in the summer of 2023. Our vision is simple but profound: to weave the enchantment of cinema with the artistry of mixology. In each carefully curated event, we embark on a journey of flavor and sensation by crafting special cocktails inspired by the featured movie. What makes it truly special? We source our ingredients from the country of the film, infusing each drink with the essence of its cultural roots. It’s an intentional endeavor to create a unique experience, engaging every level of sensation and appreciating beauty in diverse forms.

Reception starts at 6:00 pm, screening starts at 7:30 pm.
We will screen one short and one feature film from Colombia, followed by a Q&A with YORUGA short film director ” Federico Torrado Tobon ”
