The initiative led by Lizette Vila promotes socio-cultural and humanist actions.
Havana, June 13 (RHC)-- The Audiovisual Production House in Cuba, Proyecto Palomas, is celebrating its 20th anniversary on Monday with the defense of diversity and the promotion of a culture of peace.
Made up of collaborators and people of good will, the initiative led by Lizette Vila promotes socio-cultural and humanist actions, without lucrative purposes, at the same time that it has a wide catalog of filmic materials on diverse themes.
In this sense, the Project stimulates the production of audiovisual works and workshops focused on groups in vulnerable situations, such as victims of violence, transgender people, the elderly, children, adolescents, young people and people with any illness.
An example of this is their most recent release: Mujeres de fe, señales de lealtad (Women of Faith, Signs of Loyalty), which brings together in seven short films of about two minutes, their opinions, ideas and aspirations about the future of Cuba, with the particularity that each one practices a different religion.
On this occasion, the Félix Varela Center, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Cuban Institute of Cinematographic Art and Industry and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, faithful allies of the house, are once again joining the project.
A pioneer in the treatment of topics related to health, HIV and other issues, the Project has been honored by hundreds of admirers of its work, who, through the social network Facebook, praised its actions in the communities, the quality of its documentaries and the social commitment of its members.
From the digital platform itself, the production house evoked the two decades of work, in which it has kept "accompanying the lives of Cubans, trying to put concrete hope, lasting lights and creative resilience".
The House's audiovisual catalog includes titles such as Women Survivors of Two Pandemics, My Body is My Life; They... Their Care and Caregivers; Women... the Vital Powers of Success; Women, the Golden Hour, Women... from Garbage to Wellness, among many others.
