As neoliberal Europe faces an unprecedented social and political crisis, Riots and Rituals revisits the militant cinema of the Long Sixties, shaped by struggles and imagined alternative futures. Though defeated, they marked the foundations of today’s Europe.

The project was developed under the frame of a commission by Europe, Future Past, cosponsored by Tabakalera – Centro Internacional de Cultura Contemporánea and Fundación Donostia / San Sebastian 2016.
