From August 4 to 7, a series of exhibitions, conferences, screenings, and literary presentations will be held in honor of the 50th anniversary of the iconic film ‘Jaws’.

On Tuesday, August 5, at 22:00, the beach of La Cala de Estepona will host a screening of ‘Jaws’, transforming the setting into the mythical Amity Island. The festivities will continue on Wednesday, August 6, at 20:00 at Casa de Las Tejerinas, with the launch of the commemorative book ‘Y tú, ¿a qué le tienes miedo?’ which delves into the fears instilled by ‘Jaws’ and other phobias related to real or imaginary creatures. The authors, Isabel López, Carlos Morcillo, and José Ignacio del Pino, will be joined by musician Pablo Carbonell for an acoustic concert at 10:30 pm in Plaza Antonia Guerrero. The celebrations will wrap up on Thursday, August 7, at 22:00, with a screening of ‘Jaws 2’ on the beach of La Cala, directed by Jeannot Szwarc.
