Loop Festival: Video production screening 2022

We are happy to announce the screening of the A-Place Video Production 2022.

There are two video productions:

Walden 7 or Life in the Cities
Domènec
Video Production Commissioned by LOOP 2022

This year, the artist Domènec will develop the film project “Walden 7 or Life in the Cities” around a residential building located in Sant Just Desvern on the outskirts of Barcelona, designed by Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura. With archival images and interviews, the work examines the journey from the original project to its current state. The collection of testimonies will be structured around a discussion with the architect's sister and co-author of the project, Anna Bofill, herself an architect as well as a feminist activist. She has lived in the building for 30 years, so her life is closely linked to it.

El lugar que habito (The place I inhabit)
Sindihogar/Sindillar
Video Open Call Winner 2022

“The place I inhabit” by Sindihogar/Sindillar is an audio-visual essay that explores the controversies experienced by migrant women in Barcelona. It reflects on the invisibility of migrant women's work in the creation of cultural heritage, as well as their segregation in the private sphere and in care work. Sindihogar/Sindillar is the first independent trade union for domestic workers and carers in Spain. Since its creation in 2011, it has been actively involved in the struggle for the dignity of care work. Along with “The place I inhabit”, the MEMEX project (MEMories and EXPeriences for Inclusive Digital Storytelling) will be also presented. This project seeks to promote social cohesion through collaborative tools. Through a video and the voices of Sindihogar/Sindillar members, viewers are invited to discover Barcelona’s cultural heritage.
