In this edition of Cinema a la Fresca 2026 and throughout the month of July, We will explore the fascinating relationship between cinema and architecture. Cities are not just stages; They are characters that breathe, They condition the emotions of their inhabitants and reflect the contradictions of our time. Through these seven films, We will travel through metropolises that become emotional labyrinths, dreamscapes and mirrors of the human condition. Each film invites us to read the city as an architectural text where all kinds of stories are written.. loneliness, the beauty, the strange and the absurd inevitably mix, as in life itself. From the hand of different film experts, architecture and art, We will visit the different cities that they themselves have chosen to animate some summer movie afternoons in an educational and relaxed way..

Paddington is a young bear who lives with his uncles in the jungle of Peru, which have inspired in his nephew the desire to know London. A strong earthquake devastates the jungle, leaving his uncle trapped and dead, while Paddington and his Aunt Lucy enter a makeshift shelter. The next day, seeing all the destruction, Lucy decides to put him on board as a stowaway on a ship that will head to the United Kingdom.. Once you reach your destination, look for a home, but not before going through many adventures.
