#Metoo: In(visibilities) and violence on Film

October 4th

17:00

UP Rectory Auditorium

This conversation is based on three films – Polifonia (which will be shown in the session), Shibuya and Framed – which address various (in)visibilities and forms of violence that cross the cinematographic world and imply a necessary discussion about gender asymmetries and diversity that persists. With the presence of researchers and activists who have been developing work in this sphere, it is intended to create a discussion that allows us to understand the path that has been taken in this sphere, the challenges that arise and the forms of action.
