True to our desire to show those works that, being remarkable, do not get enough or even any dissemination, and after the good reception we had last season, we again programmed «El documentary a l’escola» . This year we selected 5 documentaries made by students from: INS La Mercè, EMAV, Comunicació Audiovisual UB, Blanquerna and INS Santa Eulàlia. A selection that, both for the topics covered and for the technical and narrative quality, will surely not disappoint you. Make the aforementioned selection here:
Word is Bond: «Sherwod Syndrome» is a Hip Hop collective that emerged from the fringes of the city. Socially committed and self-defined as anti-fascists, they denounced, through rap – one of the most combative poetic currents of the late 20th century – the social injustices around them.
