Camera Catalonia<br />
SUPPORTED BY<br />
Welcome to Camera Catalonia!<br />
This year we focus almost exclusively on debut fi lms by young Catalan<br />
fi lmmakers, with one exception being a second feature. There is a fresh<br />
approach to fi lmmaking in all of the fi lms, clearly demonstrating that<br />
creativity and good storytelling are much more important than big<br />
budgets. As in previous years, we hope to have some guests to present<br />
and discuss the fi lms as well as the current state of Catalan cinema.<br />

7 Reasons to Run Away<br />

7 raons per fugir<br />
Catalonia, <strong>2019</strong>, 75 mins.<br />
Catalan and Spanish with English subtitles.<br />
DIRECTORS Esteve Soler, Gerard Quinto &<br />
WITH<br />
David Torras<br />
Sergi López, Emma Suárez, Lola Dueñas,<br />
Alex Brendemühl, Aina Clotet<br />
Esteve Soler adapts his own theatre work, taking<br />
a caustic and nihilistic approach to contemporary<br />
western society. His brilliant, dark humour is not<br />
suitable for the faint-hearted, and the surrealism that<br />
impregnates it recalls Buñuel at his most acerbic.<br />
Reminiscent, too, of Monty Python’s The Meaning of<br />
Life (with which it shares several similarities), it is<br />
divided into seven chapters, each named after a social<br />
value. Beyond the laughter, we are left with much to<br />
refl ect on.<br />
We hope to welcome actor Aina Clotet for a Q&A<br />
following the fi lm on Tuesday October 22nd.<br />
