We are thrilled to unveil our brilliant 2026 Festival poster, created by two young outstanding graphic designers based in Cuba. Roberto Pérez Curbelo (@_potto_), who designed last year’s poster, has now teamed up with Dayron Giro (@d.giro.design) to produce a colourful and captivating image that we’re confident you’ll enjoy as much as we do. Puro Cubano!

Blending tradition with innovation, the poster again shares the screen print aesthetic of Cuban film poster design. It draws inspiration from Cuba’s vintage cars that are emblematic of the country, but the car is reimagined with a cinematic twist: the hood opens up to reveal an old-style movie reel projector on top of the engine – ready for instant mobile cinema. It’s a joyful celebration, combining the inventiveness of the island’s people and its celebrated cinema, brought vividly to life.

Posters will be on sale soon online and at the Festival screenings to help raise funds for ICAIC archive restoration and other projects.
