Ecuador Mourns Cuban Scriptwriter Gerardo Fernandez
Quito, Dec 23 (Prensa Latina) Intellectuals, writers and filmmakers from Ecuador on Wednesday mourned Cuban writer and screenwriter Gerardo Fernandez, who dedicated his final years to imparting his knowledge in this South American country.
Professor Gerardo, as he was affectionately called, left hundreds of students here who are grateful for all the hours he dedicated to them at institutions such as the University of Arts and the Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences, among others.
The Ulises Estrella National Cinematheque, of the Benjamin Carrion House of Culture, was one of his favorite places, because there he developed workshops to teach script writing to adults, and he also dedicated time to children and young people in summer courses.
