Asian Films 2018

from March 24th to July 7th

Casa Asia, in collaboration with Barcelona County Council, for the second year in a row, presents the project Asian Films, through which there is an approach to Asian author cinema to towns of the province of Barcelona, films that are not usually available in commercial routes.

A project through which we try to approach the cultures of this large continent to Catalan population, in order to spread cinematographic culture of the Asian continent, at the same time it promotes the development of activities that encourage a social approach to interculturality. Knowing that there are commonly shared narrations and individual narrations, as well as group and personal experiences that could be saved by their transmission, the approach to other cultures finds in cinema an exception. In fact, these narratives -in long and short stories- communicate us through different media such as literature, cinema, plastic and visual arts, stage arts and witnesses that are gathered of authors, artists and film makers, the works discover local worlds in a global knowledge system. However, films are a great media for this purpose, because movement image is a universal language.
