The commemoration of International Women’s Day on March 8th will be marked in Torrevieja by a mini film festival.

The Council of Equality says that the contribution of women has been very important throughout our history and must take the place it deserves in a free and egalitarian society. It therefore wishes to remind the people the women who have preceded us   and paved the way for the new generations, with their endeavours and their talent, so that the areas that have now been conquered by equality do not close.

As such the Council of Equality will be holding an online film cycle “WOMEN OFCINE”, with three films, which, throughout the month of March, will take place on March 12, 13,  14,  19, 20, 21, 26, 27 and 28 March, allow us local society to reflect on women in our time  and also to see women through the eyes of our filmmakers.
