AVANCA | CINEMA 2020

AVANCA | CINEMA 2020 in the Time of Pandemic
“It happened we don’t know exactly how.
News with numbers of a virus taking control of our lives has been motivating the most frantic reactions against attitudes, rights, events and critical thinking. The resistance, however, is being organized and getting a say. After months of confinement, incarcerated energies sometimes explode, putting numbers and people at risk and turning against each other.
We are still in the time of danger, of urgency, and of acting. But in order to get out of this stagnation with dignity and some grandeur, what really matters is to enter the time of thought, analysis and tolerance. In that time when human feeling shows solidarity and assesses the real dangers it runs. In that time when we have time to devote time ... to time. In that time when we look at the Other, as if it were us.”
In 2020 everything is different.
This is the 11th edition and it takes place over 9 days. The AVANCA | CINEMA being a double blind scientific review conference, it is still a meeting of researchers, this year in person and, for the first time, online.
But in 2020, the AVANCA | CINEMA is resilience and commitment to research and always to cinema.
Safely, for sure.
