| The festival brings together a score of authors in Cartagena with the aim of showing that the reality of crime is much cruder than fiction | On September 9, 10 and 11, the El Batel Auditorium in Cartagena will host the celebration of the seventh edition of Cartagena Negra, a festival of black, police and mystery literature.
Within the program promoted by the City Council, 18 authors are going to meet, the main ones on the national literary scene. Cartagena Negra will hold three reading clubs, presentations of two novels, three round tables, and a screening of the three short films that have been finalists.
As well as enjoying the short film by Mabel Lozano on the 11th: Biography of the corpse of a woman, awarded with a Goya.
The director will do a discussion taking advantage of the projection.
