Margarita Ledo Andión participates in Málaga Docs
Professor Ledo Andión wrote the prologue to the collective book El documental en España. Historia, Historia, estética e identidad.
The Malaga Festival returns to the Malaga Docsconference with the publication of the collective book El documental en España. Historia, estética e identidad (Documentary film in Spain. History, aesthetics and identity), published by Cátedra and the festival itself.
Complementing the presentation of this volume is the Documentary Film Meeting 2023,En el espejo: una mirada compartida al cine documental en España(In the Mirror: A Shared Look at Documentary Film in Spain), which takes some of the principles and themes of the book – the aesthetic and identity aspects, but also the historical ones, transversal to all the sessions -, the integrating philosophy – of profiles, of geographies – that inspired it, and the radiography of the main industrial challenges of these cinemas, to ask ourselves about the image that gives us a joint and reflective look at documentary film in Spain.
The Professor of the USC, Principal Researcher of the Grupo de Estudos Audiovisuais (GEA) and filmmaker participated, with Josep Maria Català of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, in the panel discussion And can (documentary) cinema still move the world?
Ledo and Català wrote, respectively, the prologue and epilogue toEl documental en España. Historia, estética e identidad, texts that propose essential questions about the function of documentary film in a constantly changing cinematographic and technological context. In this dialogue, they analyse the present continuum of non-action to identify the current expansion of its limits and the expression of some of its aesthetic and political constants, linked to Klotz and Perceval’s question that Professor Ledo includes in her prologue: Can cinema still move the world?
