This Thursday 7th, the film series ‘Great issues of our time’ begins in A Pobra do Brollón, a proposal by the City Council for Thursday evenings in November. The screenings will be at 8:30 pm at the Casa da Cultura ‘Olga Novo’ and will deal with current issues such as climate change, the rise of the far right or espionage on the networks.
The cycle starts with Before the flood,a documentary on climate change starring Leonardo DiCaprio and produced in 2016 in collaboration with National Geographic. This projection is made thanks to the collaboration with the group Profes por el Futuro (Teachers for Future Spain).
‘In other film cycles that we have previously organized, we focused on the closest reality of rural Galicia. But we understand that Guimaralia is inserted in a global system and there are problems that inevitably affect us and that we want to analyze with this new cycle,’ comments Ricardo Rodicio, councilor for culture.
The idea with this cycle is that after the screenings at the Casa da Cultura, the activity will continue in local bars to friendly debate the issues exposed in the films.
The following projections will be The Girls of Golden Dawn (Thursday 14), The Great Hack (Thursday 21) and ends with a surprise screening on Thursday 28.
