Sota un mateix cel. La Trinitat des de dins

Synopsis

“In mid-March, we were getting ready to shoot a film about the rich variety of people who live in our neighbourhood, when the school had to close. We held a series of online meetings and decided to go ahead with our documentary by filming inside people's homes and capturing what we could see and hear from the windows.” By adapting to changing circumstances, the children behind this project created a film that became both a lockdown diary and a remarkable story of the rich culture of the Trinitat Nova neighbourhood in Barcelona, featuring a panoply of voices in Catalan, Spanish, Arabic, Georgian, Pulaar, Russian, Urdu and Chinese.
