The Museo sets in motion a new format of expanded mediation: The Film Society. The initiative will accompany exhibitions with a predominance of audiovisual language, setting forth a framework to view, in groups, different materials and think collectively ‘with’ them, thereby affirming the premise of a film society: a space of active contemplation, mutual learning and diverse debate.
On this occasion, and in parallel with the programme of guided tours Defiant Muses: Everyone Dreams of Responding to the Television, the Museo organises this film society around a selection of audiovisual materials, both complete films and film fragments, from the exhibition Defiant Muses. Delphine Seyrig and the Feminist Video Collectives in France in the 1970s and 1980s.
Each session of the six that make up this Film Society is divided into two: one part for the public screening and another for post-screening, featuring a smaller group (15 people maximum) to debate the content seen.
