Between October 24th and November 3rd, some cinema activities will take place with the cinema of Mediterranean countries as a main character.  Titles of various cinematographies will be shown in the official and informative section, with a programme complemented by cycles, tributes, retrospectives and parallel activities. One of the cycles, Guy Debord, cineasta (Guy Debord, filmmaker), will present, for the first time in Spain, a complete retrospective of the three feature films and three short films directed by the French philosopher, on files restored by the Cinémathèque Française and supervised by the filmmaker Olivier Assayas.

In order to analyse Debord’s figure, the Faculty of Philology, Translation and Communication hosted on the morning of 28th October a day dedicated to his deliberations on the society of spectacle. The gathering, organised by the Mostra together with the Language Theory and Communication Science Department of the Universitat, will be attended by various specialists in image theory, such as Antonio Méndez, Awatef Ketiti and Silvia Guillamón, among others. In the session the book Cine, imagen y representación en Guy Debord (Cinema, image and representation in Guy Debord) will be presented, coordinated by the Professor in Audiovisual Communication at the Universitat, Manuel de la Fuente.

The academic day took place in the Salón de Grados of the Faculty of Philology Translation and Communication of the Universitat de València on Monday 28th from 10 a.m. onwards. Free entrance.  Check the full Mostra de València programme clicking here.
