This event brings together three community cinema collectives from Colombia through a program of screenings and conversation that highlights the power of locally rooted audiovisual practices. We will showcase short films by Playoniando (Medellín), Carabantú (Medellín), and Kuchá Suto (San Basilio de Palenque), each offering a view into how filmmaking strengthens social bonds, reclaims memory, and affirms territorial identity. After the screenings, the leaders of each collective will join a live discussion to reflect on their creative processes, the challenges and possibilities of community-based production, and the role of cinema in fostering collaboration and cultural continuity.

Free and open to all. In Spanish.
