festivals, fairs and functions of money

When programming, scored twelve films that I found interesting. I thought going to see them all, especially one of Saura had not been able to find. On Sunday I joined to go see the first he had highlighted and when I opened my wallet I realized I only had twenty soles. I went to the website of the movie to find out how much it would cost me grace, and taking account, I noticed quite disappointed that marked the twelve films, could only see two. I have the hope that the other ten appear on pirate DVD. The
XII Lima Film Festival opened with great fanfare in the presence of Vargas Llosa, Maria de Madeiros and Angie Cepeda, and a horrible poster boasted having the "most delicious Latin American cinema." The most flavorful of the cultural buffet can be enjoyed in its entirety by a person having to pay between 13 and 17 dollars per entry for each movie (it costs more to get the movies). Impossible to think that the projection may be accompanied with a snack and if you invite someone, it gets more difficult. There are those who can enjoy it only once or twice, others not even that. Too bad so appetizing dishes to cool and no one test bite.
If organizing a Film festival aims and a larger audience will watch the movies can not be charged the regular price for the input. It would be illogical not to be free, but it is thought in some kind of pass, promotion or simply agree to the movies to get off the ticket price of the films included in the festival program. And so to compete with piracy, if they will be deluded.
The beginning of the XII Festival de Cine de Lima has been spliced \u200b\u200bwith the completion of the FIL Lima XIII. The Book Fair, while it is true, charges a nominal fee for the entry that lets you attend all events held during the day, no bids for the purchase of books. Stands offering auction of works could be counted on the fingers of one hand. Some publishers started their regular rates, but in recent days offered between 20% and 30% discount or acquisition of the second book at half price. This does not mean that books are cheap, but well, I guess that's better than nothing.
Access to culture is for those who can afford it. That is why is increasingly out of reach of people and therefore increasingly more and more away from their interest. Then they are welcome festivals, fairs and functions of money, created for those who can deposit the value of that interest at the box office and boxes. For others, I'm sorry.

Go to the theater is another feat. Entries from 40 to 50 soles, in the best case, 30. I wish we were all eternal students to pay half-fare on the bus and also see the show for 25 soles, money that I doubt that a student can afford. Is that why no one goes to the theater, is why it just like the theater because if you like, you're scrubbing. It will also why nobody cares to restore the Municipal Theatre was burned 10 years ago and still is in ruins.
