ViendoMovies, the pay-television movie channel owned by SOMOSTV (a company chaired by Luis Villanueva and part of SOMOS Group) that schedules the best contemporary films produced in Spanish, 24 hours a day and without commercial breaks, has programmed films to commemorate festivities and also talent cycles for the month of November, such as one dedicated to actress Anna Castillo. In addition to its exclusive premieres, the channel celebrates historical events of the month such as Thanksgiving Day and the Mexican Revolution. The talent and genre cycles, combined with the celebration of US and Latin American holidays on ViendoMovies, are part of the channel's strategy to support cinema produced in Spanish, reinforcing the positioning of the channel distributed across the main pay-television companies in the United States and Puerto Rico.

The channel's audience will be able to enjoy the Cycle dedicated to the famous Spanish actress Anna Castillo (winner of Goya, Feroz, and Gaudí awards, among others) every Sunday in November at 9 pm. ViendoMovies begins on November 7 with the drama Mediterráneo (Spain 2021), directed by Marcel Barrena, which tells the incredible story of a few good men who risked their own lives to save many others in the Mediterranean Sea. Joining this production is the film La Llamada (comedy 2017), co-starring Macarena García, featuring the hilarious story of two teenagers at a Christian summer camp. Both share a passion for reggaeton and electro-latino, but surprising appearances by God will change their lives. The cycle continues on November 21 with the drama Girasoles Silvestres (drama 2022), directed by Jaime Rosales, which tells the story of Julia, a 22-year-old single mother of two who embarks on several romantic adventures in search of happiness. Finally, the Anna Castillo cycle concludes with Historias para no contar (comedy 2022), directed by Cesc Gay, featuring five interlocking comic tales centered on the emotions of the main characters, told with a lot of rhythm and action.

On November 20, ViendoMovies commemorates the anniversary celebration of the Mexican Revolution with a selection of films from the Aztec country, one of the most significant communities in the Hispanic market. On this major date, the SOMOSTV channel schedules the films Ciudadano Buelna, Chicogrande, and El Rey de todo el Mundo. Ciudadano Buelna(historical, 2013), winner of Ariel Awards and Diosas de Plata, is a historical production that tells the life of Rafael Buelna Tenorio, a rebellious young man unknown to official history who dreamed of an egalitarian country. Directed by Felipe Cazals, the film stars Sebastián Zurita, Marimar Vega, and Damián Alcázar. Also scheduled for this date is Chicogrande(historical, 2010), also directed by Felipe Cazals and starring Damián Alcázar. It recounts the adventures of Pancho Villa after the failed invasion of Columbus, as he retreats and is wounded in the leg by Carrancista troops in Ciudad Guerrero. Finally, the channel shows El Rey de todo el Mundo (musical drama, 2021), directed by Carlos Saura and starring Manuel García-Rulfo, Ana de la Reguera, and Damián Alcázar. This musical revisits the folkloric tradition of Mexican music and dance.

Another highly cherished celebration in the United States observed by the channel is Thanksgiving Day, for which ViendoMovies has scheduled a selection of films aimed at the whole family. Notable among these films are Explota Explota (musical, Spain, 2020) featuring the music of Raffaella Carrà, Me gusta la Tuya (comedy, Dominican Republic, 2020), and No me Digas Solterona 2 (Peruvian comedy, 2022).

The month of November, a prelude to the Christmas holidays, is celebrated in this manner by ViendoMovies, which carefully selects its content to showcase talent and productions with production values competitive with the most demanding in international cinematography. Characterized by a high-quality, premium graphic package, ViendoMovies recently celebrated 20 years on the air, a testament to the appeal of a space that addresses the entertainment needs of one of the market's most important demographic segments.
