Book “Light in Venezuelan Fiction Cinema” will be presented this Sunday at FILVEN

Venezuelan filmmaker Eddy León will present this Sunday, November 15, his book “Light in Venezuelan fictional cinema. The Director's Dictatorship”, a work that brings together testimonies from 20 national film professionals and vindicates the role of cinematographers in the construction of the cinematographic image.

The publication, published under the sponsorship of the National Autonomous Cinematography Center (CNAC), includes conversations with figures from different generations of Venezuelan cinema, who share their experiences on lighting, visual composition and the evolution of techniques, from the 35 mm photochemical format to digital tools.

Through these testimonies, León addresses the work of those who build the visual identity of a film and seeks to make visible their creative and technical contribution, often relegated to other functions of film production.

The presentation will take place at 2:00 p.m., in the Russian Room of the National Art Gallery, as part of the program of the International Book Fair of Venezuela (FILVEN 2026). The meeting will include the participation of the author and some of the professionals included in the research.
