Screening Violence: Film Screening Argentina

Activity: Other

Description

The lastest screenings for the "Screening Violence: A Transnational Study of Post-Conflict Imaginaries" project took place in Dungannon on 7 November 2019, with the support of the Dungannon Film Club, showing two Argentinian films followed by a discussion with participants. The films shown were "Padre/Father" (Director Santiago Bou Grasso), a short stop motion animation piece that portrays the day-to-day life of a woman who looks after her bedridden military father. The second film was "Who am I?/QuiƩn soy yo?"(Director Estela Bravo), a documentary about the stolen babies of the 1976-83 military dictatorship in Argentina who have recovered their true identity. Needless to say, the films provoked an interesting discussion.The discussion are part of the wider "Screening Violence" AHRC project.
