Santiago Rising - Film Screening with Wine & Nibbles (Community Fund Event)

A PGR Community Fund Event

Santiago Rising, directed by Nick MacWilliam, portrays the social revolt that took place in the Chilean capital in 2019 and which led to a change in the political scene and, in particular, the beginning of a process of replacement of the Pinochet’s authoritarian constitution.

Throughout thrilling footage of protests, artistic demonstrations and interviews, the film addresses the peoples’ demands that questioned the neoliberal model and its effects on the population.

• Oscar Berglund, Lecturer in International Public and Social Policy UoB and expert in social movements, civil disobedience, contestation, and neoliberalisation
• and Victoria Rivera Ugarte as chair of the panel.

At the end of the activity, we invite you to continue the conversation and enjoy some nibbles, drinks and refreshments that we will offer to the participants.
