Brain Film Fest 2021

Under the theme «brain crash», the festival ponders on how the pandemic has affected our mental health and how the brain can recover from such an impact. Brain Film Fest is fostered by the Pasqual Maragall Foundation and organized together with Fundació Uszheimer and Minimal Films.

In addition to the short films competing for the XI Premi Solé Tura, the festival will screen a selection of feature films that explore various brain conditions, the mysteries of this organ, and the challenges intrinsic to neuroscience and biotechnology. Through workshops and panels, many experts will reflect on the psychological aftermath of these trying times. Moreover, participants will be able to learn how to listen to their own body and emotions in meditation and movement workshops.

Brain Film Fest 2021 proposes a multidimensional approach to the brain. By joining cinema and science, the festival aims to explore what’s on the other side, after a year that has taught us just how crucial it is to maintain a healthy brain.
