“Los paraísos perdidos” (“Lost Paradises”) (Basilio Martín Patino, 1985)
Film on Campus
In the framework of the 5th Philosophy Seminar of the Josep Lluís Blasco Chair

The daughter of a Republican intellectual who died in exile returns home to a Castilian village to say goodbye to her dying mother and take charge of her father's vast cultural legacy. The return entails reconnecting with the places and people that shaped her youth, and at the same time, the protagonist translates Hölderlin's Hyperion, a task that becomes a vehicle for her reflection on “lost paradises”: the denied future, exile, uprooting, and the possibility of maintaining hope.

With a lyrical and introspective tone, the film transcends conventional narrative to become a visual poem about memory, identity, and the search for meaning after loss. (FILMAFFINITY)

The session will be presented and discussed by Anacleto Ferrer (UV), and is open to the entire university community and the public interested in the intersection of film and philosophical thought.
