General Report II. The New Abduction of Europe, the new film by Pere Portabella, has been released on 5th February in Spanish cinemas.
By virtue of an encounter between intellectuals and social movements debating a new European project, held in the Museo Reina Sofía in 2014, the film plots out a complex storyline of citizen platforms, reinvented institutions and changing social processes. Informe general II upholds the role of culture as a space for questioning the present, and the role of the museum as a public institution from which to consider our own “accounts”, both inherited and future, and the type of subject that can appropriate these narratives and project them into the future. Science, citizen collectives, grassroots movements and networks all complement the cultural institution, sketching an overview of uncertainty that Portabella’s film sets out and simultaneously questions.
