And 'An Imperfect Mother' starring Susan Sarandon and Rose Byrne.

Macián stressed, on the other hand, that these are two comedies that can enjoy any type of public, and that will allow participation in this activity to families, seniors, adults or young people.

This year the two films, both released in 2015, will be screened in 12 neighborhoods and councils.

The mayor of Culture has invited the inhabitants of the neighborhoods "but also all those who can go to see them" to attend the sessions of the summer cinema and "make a pleasant evening to people who wish to see them" and "Extends the cultural and educational offer that is made throughout the year."
