Renowned Argentine filmmakers Mariano Cohn and Gastón Duprat were honored with the prestigious Biznaga de Honor at the 29th edition of the Malaga Festival, held in March 2026.

The Malaga Festival, in its 29th edition, has recognized directors Mariano Cohn and Gastón Duprat with the Biznaga de Honor, the highest award of the event. This prize highlights the significant contribution of the Argentine filmmakers to contemporary cinema.
The presentation of this award took place within a vibrant edition of the festival, which also included the premiere of Hangar rojo by Juan Pablo Sallato, a Chilean work that addresses Pinochet's coup d'état with the aim of building historical memory.
In addition to career recognitions, the festival was the scene of various cultural activities, such as the inauguration of the photographic exhibition Fuera de plano by Amparo García and the presentation of Corredora, the debut novel by Laura García Alonso, which explores physical and emotional limits.
La Villa del Mar, an innovative space where technology and culture converge, was also inaugurated during the event, consolidating the Malaga Festival as a benchmark in artistic promotion and innovation.
