A SCOTS arts festival is preparing to make its debut to the virtual stage this year to highlight the importance of the cultural sector. IberoDocs, Scotland’s Ibero-American Documentary Film Festival, will run from April 19 to May 2, screening online to the entire UK and beyond. Organisers said the eighth edition will focus on art in all its forms as a “necessary and faithful companion”, even in these dark times. Festival director Mar Felices said: “We have seen how artists are among the most vulnerable communities affected by the pandemic For that reason we felt it was important that this year’s main programme would honour some of the best Ibero-American figures in all seven arts.
