OUTshine LGBTQ+ Film Festival Presents Maspalomas, its Centerpiece Film & Afterparty at Koubek Center

The OUTshine LGBTQ+ Film Festival Spring Edition presents its Centerpiece Film Maspalomas (Spain, 2025), a comedy-drama, at 7:30 p.m. on April 30, at the historic Koubek Center (2705 SW 3rd St) in Miami. An afterparty will follow the screening.

Seventy-six-year-old Vicente is finally living his truth. In the sun-drenched LGBTQ+ haven of Maspalomas, he spends his days cruising the dunes and his nights in the neon glow of the Yumbo Centre. But when a stroke leaves him partially paralyzed, he is forced back to his rainy hometown of San Sebastián. Placed in a conservative nursing home by his estranged daughter, Vicente retreats into the closet. However, an unlikely friendship with his ebullient, right-wing roommate and a secret digital life spark a quiet revolution. This poignant look at aging proves that the light of self-discovery never truly fades.

In Basque and Spanish with English subtitles, the film runs 106 minutes.
