FILMAR en América Latina X MEG: decolonial and anti-racist views for young people
MEG's Sunday movies are back for a season based on three essential and current notions: decolonisation, gender and sustainability.
Documentary, fiction and animation films addressing these themes will be screened free of charge in the Museum Auditorium on several Sundays each month.
The Filmar en América Latina festival, which takes place from 18 to 27 November, has put together a selection of short animated films for the MEG dealing with the concept of decolonisation... for young people!
A look adapted to the children and teenagers to allow them to question the processes of social construction and the relationships of domination.
