We absolutely can't wait until CineRoma 2.0 kicks off!!
CineRoma 2.0 is a film festival co-curated with Roma youth, in partnership with Romano Lav and Offline Cinema. The festival showcases a diverse range of films created by and featuring Roma people. It explores themes of self-perception, identity, history and systems of power.
CineRoma 2.0 opens on the 8th of August with the powerful feminist documentary, ‘Carmen, No Fear of Freedom’ by Irene Baqué.
From the Las 600 neighbourhood in the South of Spain, Carmen is leading the first association of feminist Roma Women to fight systemic racism and sexism. Having broken the stereotypes, she will have to deal with the pressure of having become her community’s hope for change.
