The event is featuring a talk by artist, a performance by Benny Nemer, lectures by David Aaron Swartz and Siân Cook, a conversation with filmmaker Carla Simón, and a screening of her film Estiu 1993 (Summer 1993), a personal work that reflects on loss, memory, and AIDS from the perspective of a child.
