Fall<\/em> is a short film, produced by MEXE Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Cultural, that focuses on the impact the pandemic has brought to members of Portugal\u2019s younger, and lower economic communities. Precarity, job insecurity and the right to safe housing were already some of the main concerns found within these communities, yet all have worsened since the onset of the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fall<\/em> tells the story of two people, who represent thousands of citizens across Portugal, drawing attention to the pandemic of poverty that we will see continue long after the virus has gone. In co-production with EAPN Portugal – European Anti Poverty Network – this short film has continued the work developed with the Local Citizens Councils throughout 2020. CLCs (the Portuguese abbreviation) are groups that bring together citizens who live or experience situations of poverty and\/or social exclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using MEXE\u2019s methodology, participatory procedures were developed in the design and implementation of the project, meaning that the script has been jointly constructed and written with the communities it represents, evolving further in the recordings, and opening up space for a participative interpretation, production and post-production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The screening of Fall will be accompanied by a facilitated after talk, sparking wider discussion about how the pandemic has only exacerbated problems like poverty and inequality of opportunity for those in lower socio-economic and younger communities, making it an essential and timely viewing for ICAF 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Encontro MEXE Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Cultural is a non-profit association that organises a meeting point in the context of the Portuguese national and international cultural panorama. Their programme creates as a space for the appreciation and dissemination of artistic projects that cross different languages and communities based on the dialogue between creation, public space, and civic participation. MEXE emphasises a holistic approach to culture and artistic creation. In this way, it promotes a reflective dimension and knowledge production through meetings, seminars, congresses, publications, documentaries, among others, in partnership with various institutions from different sectors that compete for the same goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within its activity, MEXE develops a programming model through a participatory logic, from its conception to its implementation, integrating different formal and informal actors in the various stages of this process. This deepens the decentralization of their programming, extending to territories with less access to artistic creation, production, and enjoyment, and supporting proposals that are inscribed in unconventional and more peripheral spaces, with a special focus on approaches to public space. MEXE encourages the participation and exchange of national and international artists, allowing for the diversification of proposals, artistic languages, contexts, and geographic origins, favouring proposals that are closely related to the local communities where the projects are located.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Encontro MEXE Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Cultural","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"encontro-mexe-associacao-cultural","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-11-21 15:03:25","post_modified_gmt":"2024-11-21 14:03:25","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/?post_type=maker&p=4107","menu_order":0,"post_type":"maker","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}]},"programmes":{"2023033020230330":{"19:00:0020:00:00":[{"id":309,"title":"Fall","type":"productions","production_count":1,"start_date":"20230330","date":[{"day_name":"Thu","day":"30","month":"March","month_abbrev":"Mar","year":"2023","timestamp":"2023-03-30"}],"time":"19:00 - 20:00"}]}},"days":["20230330"],"makers":{"4107":"Encontro MEXE Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Cultural"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/91","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/production"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/91\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1158,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/91\/revisions\/1158"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/93"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=91"},{"taxonomy":"edition","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/editions?post=91"},{"taxonomy":"festival_production_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/festival_production_types?post=91"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
