The sun does not always shine in Barcelona, the “best shop in the world” according to the slogan of a City Council campaign. The thousands of tourists who visit Barcelona every month boost the city's economy, but their social and human impact is often overlooked. The precarious nature of jobs in tourism, real estate pressure from the hotels, and the types of problems that crop up when a city turns into a kind of theme park in an attempt to seduce outsiders. The classic problems of global capitalism, reflected in one of the country's major industries... “BCN Thematic Park” talks about all this... about Barcelona, a city-advertisement that is turning into the newest theme park on the international market.

A city built out of fragments found on the net. Mirages hinting at a world of ephemeral beauty and a forgotten people.

Mapas Migrantes looks at migration in Barcelona from the period following the Civil War up until the present, through the city's buildings, infrastructures and street furniture. It is a kind of atlas, a series of maps that take shape through the voices of migrants, whose tales of the past invite us to re-read the city. Charting the invisible, we enter a territory in which individual subjectivities erase the boundaries laid down by the dominant discourse.

Four families who live in Bon Pastor, a Barcelona neighbourhood, refuse to leave their single-storey houses. Some refuse because they've lived there for their whole lives, others because they feel they've been duped by the Board of Housing. This video shows the action carried out by the support group “Asemblea de Apoyo a Bon Pastor” in solidarity with the four families who resisted, at a time when it is seen as “politically incorrect” to ask for what you believe is right.
