The Lleida Latin-American Film Festival (Catalan: "Mostra de Cinema Llatinoamericà de Lleida" , or shortened to Catalan: "Mostra de Lleida" ) is a cinema festival that takes place in Lleida, Catalonia, Spain awarding Latin American films.
 It is organised by the Latin American Centre of Lleida and is sponsored by the city council (La Paeria), the University of Lleida and La Caixa.
 It's one of the main yearly cultural events in the town and takes place at the Teatre Principal, CaixaFòrum Lleida, Funatic, Cafè del Teatre de l'Escorxador, Institut d'Estudis Ilerdencs, the main campus of the University of Lleida, and the Hotel Condes de Urgel, alongside other cultural activities.
 The event has taken place since 1995, and awards were first given in 1997.
 At one time the festival took place in January but today it takes place in late March.
Tony Wayne Baxter (born February 1, 1947) is the former senior vice president of creative development in Walt Disney Imagineering and was responsible for creating designs and carrying out the construction of attractions all over the world.
 He announced his departure from his full-time position to become a part-time adviser on February 1, 2013, which was also his 66th birthday.
 During his 47-year tenure with the company, he oversaw the construction of multiple contemporary Disney theme park attractions, including Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Star Tours, Splash Mountain, The Indiana Jones Adventure, and Journey Into Imagination.
A Bigger Splash is a 1974 biopic about David Hockney's lingering breakup with his then partner Peter Scheslinger, during the period 1970 to 1973.
 Directed by Jack Hazan, and edited by David Mingay, it has music by Patrick Gowers.
 Featuring many of Hockney's circle, it includes designers Celia Birtwell and Ossie Clark, artist Patrick Procktor, gallery owner John Kasmin and museum curator Henry Geldzahler.
 It is a fly on the wall documentary, intercut with fictionalised and fantasy elements.
 It was groundbreaking and remains notable for its treatment of gay themes and its insights into his life and work during an important period in Hockney's life.
 The film takes its title from "A Bigger Splash", perhaps Hockney's best known Californian swimming pool picture.
 Hockney was initially shocked by its intimacy but later changed his mind.
Jason Edwards: an Average Man is an 1892 novel by American author Hamlin Garland.
 First published by the Arena Publishing Company in Boston, the novel is divided into two parts entitled "The Mechanic" and "The Farmer", respectively.
 There are two major settings that accompany each section.
 In the first part, the setting is in Boston and then moves to Boomtown, a prairie town in the Midwest, in the second part.
 The book takes place over a period of ten years, beginning in 1879 and finishing in 1889, but an important part of the novel takes place in 1884 as well.
 Most scenes written about in the novel are set in the summer months.
 "Jason Edwards" takes place during the Gilded Age in American History.
Ivan Orloff (Lee Beggs) and his unnamed wife (Blanche Cornwall) are poor peasants, presumably living in the Russian Empire.
 Ivan is shown sitting on a cart while his wife walks alongside their horse, helping to pull the cart.
 The husband whips both the horse and his wife indiscriminately.
 The wife is represented as completely subordinated, as just another beast.
 On their way, they meet a group of emigrants who invite Ivan to join them.
 When Ivan, together with his wife, arrives in America, "the land of freedom," he learns four "lesson[s] in Americanism" that turn him into a respectful husband with regard to his wife.
 The first lesson takes place upon landing.
 Ivan has his wife carry a huge bundle on her back.
 When she succumbs under the weight of the bundle, Ivan starts prodding her with a stick, threatening to beat her.
 A gentleman approaches them, picks up the bundle and puts it on Ivan's back.
 The gentleman takes the stick from Ivan, hands it to the wife and shows her how to prod Ivan.
 The second "lesson in Americanism" takes place in the couple's new home at Odessa Inn.
 Threatening his wife, Ivan asks her to take off his shoes.
 He beats her and knocks her to the floor.
 A man comes in and asks Ivan to put the wife in bed.
 After Ivan reluctantly does that, the man knocks him down to the floor the way Ivan did to his wife.
 The third lesson takes place in the countryside.
 The couple no longer lives at the inn but owns a house and some land.
 The wife no longer wears a scarf.
 She toils in the garden, while Ivan sits in a chair smoking a pipe.
 When she protests, Ivan goes to beat her, but a passer-by stops him and punches him several times, forcing him to tend to his wife who has fainted and work instead of her.
 Ivan's wife begins to live in an increasingly "American way."
 She learns to stand up to his abuse.
 They have another feud, this time while having dinner in their house.
 While they are scuffling with each other, two men come in and break them up.
 For Ivan's fourth and final "lesson in Americanism," he gets sentenced to hard labor for six months.
 In prison, he cracks and becomes "completely Americanized."
 The ending shows Ivan in the garden and his wife calling him for dinner.
 As they sit down to the table, they both seem happy and equal.
A Knight for a Day is a 1946 Disney short film starring Goofy.

Splash Mountain is a log flume dark ride at Disneyland, Tokyo Disneyland, and the Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort, based on the characters, stories, and songs from the 1946 Disney film "Song of the South".
 Although there are variations in the story and features between the three locations, each installation begins with a peaceful outdoor float-through that leads to indoor dark ride segments, with a climactic steep drop into a "briar patch" followed by an indoor finale.
 The drop is 50 ft .
