ABOUT US
Cine Mío is a production company based in Asunción, Paraguay, founded by Ivana Urízar to develop her own film projects and collaborate with other production companies, both nationally and internationally.
This company shapes its identity by engaging audiences with stories that challenge through a genuine discourse and experimentation with language in service of effective storytelling. Additionally, it focuses on young filmmakers, functioning as a platform for emerging national talent.

A film by Juanjo Pereira
Under the Flags, the Sun
Through rare and long-forgotten footage, this documentary uncovers the hidden machinery of Alfredo Stroessner's dictatorship in Paraguay—one of history's longest-running regimes. From propaganda to international broadcasts, the film exposes how media shaped power, controlled memory, and built a legacy that still lingers today.
