Imagine a Film Festival | Media

Video installation of the exhibition 'Imagine a Festival' commemorating the 70th anniversary of the San Sebastian Film Festival.
Media' is a tribute to the media for their contribution to the international dissemination of the Festival and to preserving its memory through writings, interviews, photographs and audiovisuals. It is an installation of two 98' 4K monitors that form an open book. It shows a selection of extracts from the life of the Zinemaldia collected by the media: statements and interviews with guests, journalists and members of the organisation that reveal moments that today take on special significance, memorable phrases, the 'first times' of creators such as Pedro Almodóvar, Icíar Bollaín, Jose Mari Goenaga or Bong Joon-ho, reflections on the society of their time, on cinema or on the evolution of the Festival itself.
