MINIPUT
MINIPUT 2007
13th Conference on Quality Television
Audiovisuals
Free
Barcelona will once again be the setting for debates and meetings between professionals and scholars of "quality" public television from around the world.
As always, we have the projection in original version of the most remarkable programs / documentaries / series of the most recent public television around the world, programs that we want to highlight for their quality, their capacity for reflection, their provocation, the renewal of formats or the ability to generate debate around key issues in contemporary society. In short, the only sample of that television that can hardly be seen is approaching and that anticipates in every possible way what we are used to seeing.
In total, a selection of 14 programs of the most varied nationalities will be screened. Every day we have the presence of the directors of the programs of the sessions and some special guests such as: Nicola Gibson-Docs, Philippe Dutilleul, Mònica Terribas, Toni Soler, Josep Maria Carbonell, Bernat Joan, Meira Asher, Miguel Salgado, Sharon Shmair, Yomeloguiso Produccions, Francesc Ferrer, Max Besora, etc.
