Sessió de curts + concert de "Naila de Swardt"

The Festival Internacional de Cinemes Africans de Catalunya (FICAC) and Hip Hop Works, in collaboration with Hip Hop CineFest, present an afternoon of short films as part of Perifèria Beat. FICAC presents "As aventuras do Angosat", 34 min, VOSE.

In 2017 Angola launched its first satellite into space… and it was lost. "As Aventuras do Angosat" is the dream born from this frustrated dream. A musical written and performed by Isis Hembe, one of the standout names in Angolan urban music, here transformed into Man Ré.

Filmed in a single sequence shot in the Cazenga neighbourhood of Luanda, with emerging new talents. Hip Hop Works presents "Asili: Creative Voices, Swahili Rhythms", 17 min, VOSC.

In the heart of Tanzania, ASILI explores the vitality of the local art scene through portraits of musicians, visual artists and performers committed to a cultural redefinition of their territory.

A visual and sonic immersion in a space where creation becomes a tool for social connection, resilience and identity expression. Preceded by a performance by Naila de Swardt. Naila De Swardt is a singer and songwriter from Barcelona.

Her musical project fuses hip-hop, reggae and R&B through a repertoire of original compositions in Catalan, Spanish and English.

Her lyrics draw on personal experiences and address themes such as identity, human relationships, personal growth and social critique, exploring the balance between reflection and musical expression.
