PASSION Vs ALGORITHM. Jaume RipollJAUME RIPOLL Sunday December 5 – 11:00 Itsasmuseum Free entry by registering on the web. Until full capacity. Filmin was born in the pre-crisis of 2008, in the pre-war period of the platforms, at least in Spain, and it did so autonomously, developing its platform and its opening a route up the rock face by word of mouth and an exhaustive concern for the user experience, not like its competitors. Those who guarded their "algorithm" like the Coca Cola formula have not been able to overcome the old art of love for cinema and its "programming" transferred to the platform by means of its characteristic collections, proactive listening, even anticipating the upcoming demands of the public and the attention to the user, who in this case comes to perceive a certain belonging to a community as opposed to the mass consumption of the other platforms. Collaborating with festivals, even founding some of them, dealing exquisitely with the market and now producing their own originals, this is how FILMIN has reached where it is today.

WOP - MENDI FILM AWARD. SEBASTIÁN ÁLVAROSEBASTIÁN ÁLVARO Sunday December 5 – 20:00 Euskalduna This is the award for the defence and transmission of the social values of mountaineering. The journalist, filmmaker and mountaineer, Sebastián Álvaro was the creator and director of the famous television programme 'Al Filo de lo Imposible'(On the Edge of the Impossible). This documentary series changed the conception of adventure and mountaineering in Spain. More than the 200 expeditions and 300 documentaries done by him, have made “Sebas” to be one of the people who has made the most trips to the most inhospitable places in the world. He is also the author of almost 20 books on mountaineering. Throughout the last 40 years, 'Sebas' has been and is one of the main disseminators, of all times, of these values, associated with mountaineering, being understood as a school of life.
