The Creators for Identity and Memory Association (ACIM) organizes the V Festival of Short Films for Identity, and calls authors to participate with their works. The Festival will take place in Barcelona the 30th of November and the 1st and 2nd of December. It will bring together short films dealing with identity robbery, its recognition and recovery, and the personal and social consequences. ACIM promotes activities that denounce the robbery of identity, mainly when it affects children and It is closely related with the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo Association. Children abduction and forged identity were a systematic policy during both the last Argentine military dictatorship, Spanish Franco’s regime and other “the facto” governments. ACIM considers that stolen identities should be restablished as this is an inherent human right.
