HISTORIA
The Good "Old" Times
Historical documentary films of all kinds have their own section in DocsBarcelona. Historia will present films that examine historical events in the distant past together, while others that correspond to films that impact our current reality; from classical documentary films to films that question documentary form. These are provocative works that reflect on the concept of history itself.
Programmer: Montse Armengou, journalist, historical documentary filmmaker and member of the TV3 programme 30 Minuts.
