During the 2020-2021 academic year the DRCLAS Film Series The Present of Yesterday will be hosted online and will feature a presentation by the student in charge of the session, followed by a conversation with the director of the film and Q&A with the public. The movies will be offered for free through streaming one day before the event to pre-registered participants.
“The movie theater is dark, a light from the past projects onto a screen: someone is looking for something. The Present of Yesterday fosters a dialogue between contemporary aesthetics of documentary and fiction. Contemporary filmmakers seek to understand the present through narratives made of collective histories and personal memories. Our room is dark, we turn on our screens: we are all looking for something. “ Rodrigo del Rio and Ignacio Azcueta, curators of the series.
