Controversy
[edit]On February 27, 2024, during one of the screenings of a film in a cinema in San Juan de Miraflores, a fan lit a flare at the end of the screening that activated the security protocols by the cinema staff.[6] Due to this dangerous action, the film was withdrawn from the Cineplanet cinema chains and the distribution plans for the documentary in the provinces were cancelled.[7][8]
Sequel
[edit]On November 13, 2024, after the two-time Universitario de Deportes championship in the year of its Centennial, the premiere of the film Esta es la U (lit.
