​Special location - La Cinètika

​La Cinètika is an autonomous, feminist, anti-capitalist, and squatted cinema located at Rambla de Fabra i Puig 28, with its entrance on Carrer de les Monges, in the Sant Andreu de Palomar neighborhood.

​"The squatting action took place in 2016. Since then, we have worked to breathe life into a space that had been abandoned; today, dozens of weekly activities take place there. Furthermore, we create alternatives to consumerist leisure through decisions reached horizontally in our assemblies. We aim to be autonomous, to broaden both participation and engagement, and to deepen our self-management".

​Example of Catalan activists contributing to internet of freedoms

​Imagine a diverse environment that is free & welcoming to everyone: every age group, mother tongue, gender, belief and non-technical people.

​Coming soon: details about speakers, panels, activities.
