IN-EDIT AT THE LIBRARY:
“MÚSICA PER ALS TEUS ULLS”

From October 18th to November 5th 2021

The music documentary was born in the mid-sixties as a platform for telling human and artistic stories with music and film as the common thread. A journey that has been gaining momentum thanks, in part, to the In-Edit Festival. This series of talks delves into the curiosities of documentaries and brings us closer to their protagonists.

Led by Uri Altell (founder and director of In-Edit) and Toni Castarnado (editor of the book In-Edit. Made in Barcelona: A history of the music documentary).
