Festival Gollut (8)

The Vall de Ribes Cinema Friends Association presents the 8th Gollut Festival.

The Gollut Festival is an exhibition of committed cinema, with a social and environmental theme that will present the works selected in the competition for six days. The Festival aims to show the aspects that concern society and that are not sufficiently disseminated in movie theaters, the media or the usual audiovisual distribution channels. It will show national or international cinematographic works that have as their theme socio-political, environmental awareness, or that show some form of activism in favor of human rights and the diversity of cultures.
