November 2 at 7pm
Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona · Ciutat Vella • Free
In Jumana Manna's "Foragers," gathering wild za'atar becomes an act of quiet defiance. This free screening, part of a global solidarity edition of Palestine Cinema Days, traces how nature laws collide with Palestinian food traditions.
November 6 at 6:30pm
L'Auditori · Eixample
Three films dissect how our faces become digital currency, from ContraPoints' sharp video essay on beauty and surgery to Charmaine Poh's deepfake experiments with her own childhood footage. Smart, unsettling, and oddly funny.
November 8 at 6:30pm
Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona · Ciutat Vella
Two women, two films, one question: how do we live in bodies that never stop changing? This double bill pairs Swiss river swimmers reflecting on old age with a witty Finnish manifesto on womanhood.
November 14 at 8:15pm
Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona · Ciutat Vella
Silent 35mm fragments of British colonial Palestine get a haunting new voice. Cynthia Zaven's prepared piano and Rana Eid's sound design turn 1914-1918 archive footage into a live reckoning with who gets to tell history.
November 19 at 7pm
Fàbrica de Creació Fabra i Coats · Sant Andreu • Free
What happens when bodies push back against the buildings around them? Five short films dance through that question, from queer ballroom in Barcelona's emblematic spaces to a Mies van der Rohe masterpiece. Free entry.
April 21 at 7:30pm +2
Teatre Lliure · Sants-Montjuïc
A mother watches her son cross the invisible border into adulthood, and both of them take the stage to tell it. Susanna Barranco and Jonc, who has an intellectual disability, turn their own story into tender, stirring theatre.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
