The positive energy here is palpable. Everyone is not only happy to be here, but business is brisk. It feels like a natural place for a Latin American market with films, buyers and sellers all discussing Spanish language films con mucho gusto.
A lot of Incaa and Euro money went into this. Held in the magnificent space of Harrods next to Calle Florida where shopping deals rule, and in the Cinemark Theaters on the Rio de la Plata River, well organized with online screenings of films which will continue to be available to participants for the next two months on Cinando, it looks ordained as a key event on the market calendar.
How it will compare to Guadalajara Film Festival and Market in March is a question that hangs in the air. Cinando's participation there goes back four years with its active Co-Production Market.
On reading the list of 1,400 buyers...

Horton easily won the Easter boxoffice hunt.
Fox's animated feature "Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!" repeated atop the domestic boxoffice this weekend, posting a modest 44% drop from opening grosses to earn an estimated $25.1 million with a $86.5 million cume. That outdistanced the $20 million bow by Lionsgate's urban comedy Meet the Browns.
Elsewhere over the busy holiday frame, the Fox-distributed New Regency horror film Shutter collected $10.7 million in a third-place debut, and Paramount's high school comedy Drillbit Taylor bit into $10.2 million while opening in fourth.
The weekend for Summit Entertainment's mixed-martial arts drama Never Back Down featured a decline of just 44% to kick up $4.9 million in sixth place and shape a $16.8 million cume. Universal's sci-fi thriller Doomsday fell a bigger 56% to slip from the top 10, with $2.2 million over its sophomore session yielding a 10-day cume of $8.9 million.
Lionsgate's heist adventure The Bank Job is proving surprisingly leggy, taking eighth place with $4.1 million over its third session. The tiny 19% drop from its previous weekend followed an even smaller 15% dip over its second frame, with "Job" now grabbing $19.4 million in 17-day loot.
In a notable limited opening this weekend, Under the Same Moon from Fox Searchlight and the Weinstein Co. grossed $2.6 million from 266 runs for an enviable average of $9,774 per engagement and a $3.3 million cume since bowing Wednesday. The America Ferrera starrer -- which finished in 10th place on the frame -- set a new record for a domestic opening by a Spanish-language film, outpacing a $1.6 million bow by Lionsgate's Ladron que roba a ladron in August.
Industrywide, the weekend represented a big 16% downtick from last year's non-Easter frame with $114 million in collective boxoffice, according to Nielsen EDI data. The session also underperformed the April 6-8, 2007, Easter frame by 8%.

Taking its cue from an old Latin American proverb that contends, "A thief who steals from a thief will receive 100 years of forgiveness," Ladron que roba a ladron is a heist comedy about a heartless crook who is taken down by two former associates.
But the scam doesn't end there.
It doesn't require an Eagle Eye to see this American-produced, Spanish-language production for what it really is -- an obvious "Ocean's Eleven" knockoff, minus any of that franchise's hip sensibility.
Populated by Latino telenovela stars in a Los Angeles setting, this limited Lionsgate release is facing the tricky challenge of coaxing money out of an audience accustomed to seeing these folks for free, not to mention the fact that moviegoing is traditionally way down on the list of Labor Day weekend activities. DVD definitely would be a better bet.
Directed by TV veteran Joe Menendez from an uninspired script by JoJo Henrickson, Ladron follows the exploits of not-quite-reformed thieves Emilio (Miguel Varoni) and Alejandro (Fernando Colunga), who reunite for one big heist.
The target is Moctezuma Valdez (Saul Lisazo), a ruthless TV infomercial pitchman who has made millions shilling worthless personal-improvement products -- from weight-loss creams to cancer-curing elixirs -- to poor Latino immigrants.
Out to prove there is honor among thieves, Emilio and Alejandro assemble a team of actual day laborers to infiltrate Valdez's estate while emptying his gigantic vault and redistributing the wealth.
While the caper attempts to ape the "Ocean's" style -- right down to the credit sequences and Lisazo's passing resemblance to George Clooney -- it proves to be a pale imitation when it comes to sparkling repartee and crisp pacing.
At least give Menendez and his producers credit for delivering an ensemble who look like they stepped right out of a telenovela (with pit stops at the gym and tanning salon) and onto those sunny L.A. sets, where the perpetually blue skies have been dutifully captured by cinematographer Adam Silver.
