Gen_, the documentary that shakes the culture and identity of Tortosa
A documentary that leaves no one indifferent. 'Gen_', by Gianluca Matarrese, puts on the table the tension between identity, motherhood, and freedom in an Italy that seems to be turning towards the most closed conservatism.
This Thursday, June 18 at 7 p.m., the Tortosa Chamber of Commerce will host the screening of this work that has drawn attention for its direct and unfiltered gaze, with free admission but mandatory prior reservation.
The documentary 'Gen_': a look at Italy and beyond
Context and theme
'Gen_' is not just any documentary. With a guiding thread exploring motherhood and identity in a country where individual freedoms are threatened by a rising conservative discourse, Gianluca Matarrese builds a narrative that connects emotions and social reality.
The urgency of this topic becomes more palpable when one detects an Italy with increasingly restrictive laws and discourses, which generates controversy and debate in the cultural and social environment.
Why is it important in Tortosa?
The screening in Tortosa not only brings Italian culture closer to the people of Tarragona but also reflects a global concern about personal rights and freedoms. It is a space to think and discuss how these issues also affect the local and broader environment.
The fact that the event is free and open with reservation makes it easier for a diverse audience to participate and provide different perspectives.

Cultural boost in Tortosa
The initiative to bring a documentary like 'Gen_' to Tortosa strengthens the city’s image as a cultural meeting point that not only looks inward but is interested in global issues with a clear local impact.
