A new and imposing utopia of life where no one decides for others how to die and where the races condemned to 100 years of solitude have at last and forever a second opportunity on earth.”Watch the trailerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeSZbeea9xYJoin us to celebrate 50 years of Gabriel Garcia Marquez master piece "One Hundred Years of Solitude".PENGUIN BOOKS will be at the event with all of Gabriel Garcia Marquez titles available in Singapore, don't miss the chance to get your copy.SUPPORTERS:Singapore Film Society- More info....Penguin books/ On the 30th April, after the Screening of "GABO: THE MAGIC OF REALITY" (A documentary about Gabriel Garcia Marquez), books will be on display and available for purchase by Penguin books, don't miss the chance to get a copy of any of the English titles available in Singapore.JOIN OTHER SCREENINGS!26th APRIL, WEDNESDAY 7:PM- "GENTE DE BIEN" OPENING** THIS MOVIE WILL BE OPEN TO PUBLIC CLOSER TO THE DATE.29th APRIL, SATURDAY 3:PM- "SOFIA AND THE STUBBORN"29th APRIL, SATURDAY 5:PM- "LAND AND SHADE"30th APRIL, SUNDAY 5:PM-"GABO: THE MAGIG OF REALITY"30th APRIL, SUNDAY 7:PM-"GABO: THE EMBRACE OF THE SERPENT"
