ABOUT THIS EVENT
Join us for an exploration of the work of film pioneers Segundo de Chomón and Julienne Mathieu. As the creators of innovative and imaginative films, they stood toe-to-toe with Méliès. Discover how Chomón, often overlooked, produced stunning short films and established his own production company, Ibérico Films, in Barcelona. Through research by the Filmoteca de Catalunya, we unveil lost films and insights into their artistic legacy and impactful careers. Experience a weekend filled with silent films and live music, with options for day passes or full weekend access!
