“We have done very well in film production. Our third film, Lotoman (2011) holds the record for being the Dominican biggest blockbuster, above successful foreign films with almost one million viewers, an important number for a small market like ours,” said Reyes.

It debuted in the first week of December 2022 and continues on the Dominican billboard. It has been an impressive success, after the pandemic it is probable the movie with the longest time on the billboard and that is due to the public preference and the support of movie theaters,” commented Reyes.

They have experience and visionary management regarding Caribbean cinema and what it means for international audiences. The tour begins in Puerto Rico, but they’re going to platforms and broadcast companies. We are very happy and excited about the screening of El Brujo,” Reyes pointed out.
