Tuesdays of Cinema

(Bio)ethical Dilemmas, Health, and Diversity

Organized by: The Aula de Cinema i Arts Audiovisuals and the Faculty of Nursing of the URV.

From January to May 2025, we will meet monthly to explore key debates in the world of health through the lens of audiovisual arts.

Each of the five sessions will feature a main viewing that introduces the topic of debate, complemented by other creative practices and, most importantly, a discussion guided by specialists in the field.
