The arrival of thousands of refugees coming to Europe from their homes, fleeing fear and war, is confronting European authorities with the reality of a major tragedy.
For this reason, at Fundación Tres Culturas we wanted to dedicate our October Film Tuesdays to films that deal with the issue of refugees, small stories capable of stirring consciences and mobilising efforts against injustice. This is a subject that has been brought to the big screen on numerous occasions, especially in countries such as France.
In addition, every Tuesday we will be accompanied by a member of an NGO (such as CEAR, ACCEM, Sevilla Acoge...), who will give a brief explanation of their work with refugees before the screening.
All films will be shown in the original version with Spanish subtitles, from 20.30 onwards. Free admission until full capacity is reached.
