INTRODUCTION
Under the motto ”Dressing Ideas in Films”, the programme features a broad perspective on the uses and possibilities of fashion audio-visual to convey discourses and representations with a positive impact on contemporary society: development; social and political claims, ecology and sustainability; equality and cultural, racial and gender identity; LGTB+ rights; non stereotyped beauty.
In FASHION AND FILMS we believe that fashion and audiovisual individually and especially united, reflect culture and identity and can promote action, unite, inspire, raise awareness and transmit social changes. There is a growing and significant production of fashion audio-visuals conscious and responsible for its potential as cultural objects, its ability to conjugate through creativity the promotion of fashion products with the transmission of ethical narratives relevant to society.
Distributed over two days, the program covers the different formats and approaches that this medium brings together combining fashion and audio-visual, two of the most prevailing cultural manifestations in contemporary society. It is formed by paradigmatic pieces made in the last decade along with audio-visuals that at present produce both prestigious and emerging filmmakers and international fashion brands.

VERSAILLES’73: AMERICAN RUNWAY REVOLUTION.
2012. USA.
Director: Deborah Riley Draper. www.versailles73movie.com.
Duration: 90 minutes.
Language: English without subtitles.
The documentary focuses on the fashion shows which, known as ‘The battle of Versailles’, took place on November 28, 1973 at the castle of Versailles, France. They were meant to be a combat between the designers of French Haute Couture -Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin and Emmanuel Ungaro- and American designers -Antine Klein, Stephen Burrows, Oscar de la Renta and Halston-. The battle became a paradigm shift for fashion, bringing a fresh air that would catapult ready-to-wear and a significant incorporation of black designers and models to the fashion industry.
*After the screening, a Q&A Skype will be held with Deborah Riley Draper.
