Synopsis
The Persistence of Memory
Three exciting short films that invite you to discover how collective and individual memory helps us understand the past, build the present and forge a future. The crowd will always reappear and Contracampos remind us of the importance of giving a voice to those who are no longer there: cinema as a way of keeping their stories and history alive. Laiotz offers us a fascinating journey: cinema as an exploration of the interior and exterior, between dreams and reality, light and darkness.
Ready for the trip? We will be able to discuss it with the Negu collective!
