Cine/Mobility - Latin American Online Film Festival - Oct-Nov 21.
What are the connections between the mobility of people, films and cultures? And how do these movements across borders take part in the hybrid histories, politics and communities of Latin-America?
The “Cine/Mobility” on-line film festival is an academic and curatorial project exploring multiple paths of mobility and border crossing between Latin-America and across the Atlantic, focusing on stories and experiences of migration, community-making, solidarity and resistance.
The festival consists of two strands: a program of virtual screenings and a series of round tables with film professionals and stakeholders. “Cine/Mobility” offers a complex understanding of the relationship between cinema and border crossing, and its political, economic, and cultural consequences by stimulating a dialogue between specialised audiences, professionals and academics.
All events are free and open to all. For more information and to book tickets, go the festival website:

From an incredible Creative Industries Festival event earlier today.
Bill Jay (1940-2009) was a photographer, writer, curator, magazine editor, lecturer, public speaker and mentor. He established the first exhibition space dedicated to photography in the UK with the Do Not Bend Gallery, London and was also the first Director of Photography at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London.
Director Grant Scott will join us on Thursday 19:00 - 21:00 to watch and discuss his documentary Do Not Bend, which is a warm and insightful tribute to Bill Jay’s life and legacy.
