'Sense sostre' will be the opening film for the Pantalla Barcelona

The city's civic centres will take the stage this fall with the new instalment of the Pantalla Barcelona initiative, which is celebrating its 7th edition. Organized by the Institut de Cultura de Barcelona (ICUB) through the Barcelona Film Commission, it has the collaboration of the Acadèmia del Cinema and the Cicle Gaudí. Running from October 19 to February 23, 2022, the participating civic centres are Can Basté, Pati Llimona, Can Clariana Cultural, Casa Groga, Ateneu Fort Pienc, Zona Nord, Vil·la Florida, La Sedeta, Cotxeres de Sants, La Sagrera “La Barraca”, Josep Maria Trias i Peitx and Auditori Sant Martí.

La hija de un ladrón (21/10 at CC Trias i Petix) by Belen Funes, about a young woman who is trying to start a family by distancing herself from her ex-convict father, is another one of this October's screenings.
