The Gender to Gender project is in its third year and maintains its commitment with the celebration of various activities, consolidating and expanding its transversal presence throughout the Festival.
In this special edition, which celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the Festival, we are pleased to have the opportunity to visualize the objective of the project thanks to the Leitmotiv: The Witches, a theme that offers us an enviable context of analysis and enrichment. In this sense, we will have talks, round tables and a workshop both in an Industry key and framed within our Educational strategic line.

Cinematic talk: What about witches: old, meek and perverse?
The talk proposes a journey through the archetype of the witch from its origins to the present day. We will delve into how this figure has evolved in the field of culture and cinema. Initially stigmatized by patriarchy, television and cinema managed to domesticate her. However, in recent years as a result of feminist struggles, the witch has once again broken with social and patriarchal conventions.
By Mireia Iniesta Navarro (feminist theorist and critic, teacher and Vice-President of the Catalan Federation of Cineclubs).
