The inauguration is on Friday, January 7. It will open the exhibition\u00a0Six days current\u00a0<\/a>,\u00a0directed by Neus Ball\u00fas, winner of the Chema Castiello 2022, Espiga de Plata in the last Valladolid Festival.\u00a0The film features three workers from a small plumbing and electricity company on the outskirts of Barcelona. One of the workers, of Moroccan origin, has to demonstrate for a week that he is ready to be the replacement for his partner Pep after his retirement and dissolve the doubts of Valero, the other partner, who\u00a0doubts that those who require the services of the small company will accept a worker from the Maghreb in their homes\u00a0.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On successive days, and until January 30, MUSOC attendees will be able to see films such as\u00a0Mali Twist,\u00a0by Robert Gu\u00e9diguian, a film set in the revolutionary Bamako of the sixties, which will be screened at the Niemeyer Center in Avil\u00e9s ;\u00a0As Far As I Can Walk,\u00a0by Stefan Arsenijevi ?, starring a Ghanaian migrant who meets his wife in a Serbian refugee center, which can be seen at the Philharmonic Theater in Oviedo on the 18th;\u00a0or, at the Riera Theater in Villaviciosa,\u00a0Nora’s Awakening,\u00a0by Leonie Krippendorf, about the adolescent infatuation of two young Berlin girls, Nora and Romy.<\/p>\n

Other films concern the\u00a0trans\u00a0pioneer\u00a0and activist against AIDS Connie Norman, the rural exodus in Kenya, the criminalization of abortion in El Salvador, the life of the last republican mayor of Seville and the dramas about Kosovo, Mexico and India.<\/p>\n

Oviedo, Gij\u00f3n, Avil\u00e9s, Cangas de On\u00eds, Langreo, Siero, Navia, Castrill\u00f3n, Villaviciosa and Llanes\u00a0are the participating towns, distributed from west to east throughout the region, of this edition. They take into account the current pandemic by the observance of the COVID-19 protocols, with accesses and exits to the spaces in an orderly and staggered manner and the obligation to use a mask and hydroalcoholic gel.<\/p>\n

Creativity, diversity, freedom, reflection and commitment: these are the values to which this festival seeks to embrace;\u00a0these virtues are essential in increasingly tough times. Hence the title of another of the films in this MUSOC, which will be screened in Navia on the 13th:\u00a0A Little Plan\u2026 How to Save the World.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
