MEP Ana Gomes to host #MyEscape documentary screening
MEP Ana Gomes will be hosting the screening the documentary #MyEscape on the 21st March, 12:30, at European Parliament (room ASP3G2).
#MyEscape, one of the nominees for 2016 Best International Feature Film Award in “Filmes do Homem - Melgaço International Documentary Festival”, brings us the compelling journey to freedom and safety of a group anonymous refugees captured by the camera of a smartphone.
Melgaço's Doc Festival, organized by Melgaço's Municipality and AO-NORTE Association, promotes social and ethnographic cinema that focuses on identity, memory and borders.
The open remarks will be made by MEP Elly Schlein, followed by a Q&A session with Manoel Batista, Mayor of the Melgaço Municipality, and Elke Sasse, the documentary's Director.
