🤗This is how we want to see you, night and day, with the beginning of spring! Infected with its purity, clarity and strength to be part of all the elements that are agents of positive change in our environment.

🌊 This March at the Foundation we have already noticed how the sun has made new projects sprout that were waiting for their sweet moment, so here we are "grind that grind, grind that grind, grind that grind", very happy to see how all this clear water goes down of the forest and nourishes the social ecosystem, contributing to the well-being of the community. Thanks for being there, happy Water Day and happy spring!

📬 In this fortnight's newsletter we bring you the story of the recovery of a home and the awareness of caring for our elderly, all in a single documentary; a young and groundbreaking theatrical proposal about the transformation of social structures in Spain; and a cinematographic reflection on loss and its possibilities of resilience both individually and collectively. These projects walk joyfully because they carry the illusion of you!

The Community of La Casa de Vecinas 👵

📽️ The desire to make this documentary was born as a result of the story of Magdalena, an elderly woman who was the last resident of the first tenement house on which the team, PAX-Patios de la Axerquía, has intervened.

🗣️ They want to tell not only how this 18th century house has been bought and rehabilitated by the cooperative so that six families with small children can now live in it, but Magdalena's own story, which illustrates a common problem in older women where they often experience health problems and mobility, being practically isolated at home.

👉 This documentary will explore this issue and how the cooperative has worked to ensure that the project is inclusive and takes into account the needs of all the people involved. Get to know both the project and the team better and make the documentary possible in goteo.cc/casapatiodevecinas.

"Españá: Tragedia folclórica" 💃

🎭 The La Vértigo Teatro company is made up of young actors and actresses who have been working tirelessly to create a high-quality show that moves and at the same time challenges the public to think about current political and social issues.

👁️They are passionate about the relationship between the evolution of aesthetic languages and the transformation of social structures and thought, and for this reason their work pursues the lively and dialoguing relationship between form and content, investigating dramatic structures that respond to the needs of an accustomed audience. to a quick reading, to social networks, to immediacy and to the plurality of focuses of attention.

✊ In order to continue with his artistic residency at the Paco Rabal theater (Madrid) it is necessary to cover the production costs, including the purchase and construction of props and scenery, costume making, work space rental and service payment photography and video recording.

Aigua Salina 🎬

💧"Aigua Salina" is a fiction short film selected by the ESCAC university (Cinema and Audiovisual School of Catalonia) that will be shot in April 2023 and will premiere at Cinesa Diagonal in October 2023.

🎬 This story shows us through Montse, our protagonist, that it is necessary to feel and heal what hurts us because everything that she does not care for follows you. Distance, observation, tact and crudeness are some of the key concepts from which the treatment of this work will start.

So were the workshops with Coopolis

✊ If unity is strength, since Coopolis (Barcelona Cooperative Athenaeum) and the Platoniq Foundation took a step forward and started an intercooperation agreement for the proactive promotion of joint collective financing initiatives, there are already close to a hundred people and entities that have benefited from our workshops.
