The Ministry of Culture and Portavocía and the Film Library of the Region, in collaboration with the Caja Mediterráneo Foundation, tomorrow organizes in Cartagena a special screening within the cycle 'La Memoria Filmed' with historical images of the port city that are part of the archives of the Film library.
During this 60-minute session the audience will be able to see, for example, recordings of Cartagena's Semana Santa processions during the 20's of the last century and also different fragments of NO-DO related to the city.
The projection is free and will take place from 20:30 hours in the Cultural Hall of the Main Street.
The session will begin with images of the visit of King Alfonso XIII to Cartagena, on the occasion of the tribute that was made to the heroes of Cavite.
The recordings date back to 1903 and are the oldest kept by the Film Archive of the Region in its large archive.
Next, attendees will be able to enjoy images of Holy Week in Cartagena gathered by different authors during the 20's of the last century and will also be projected several fragments of NO-DO related to the port city.
Specifically, in the latter case, these are recordings made between 1943 and 1958 reflecting the city's military life, as well as different festive and religious events.
The school of submarines, official visits of ministers and Francisco Franco, boat launches in the port and the arrival of military and military equipment from the United States are some of the recovered scenes.
Maritime processes, the collection of cotton in the countryside of Cartagena, images of the Escombreras refinery or organized events on the occasion of the feast of Our Lady of the Carmen are also other moments of life in Cartagena that at the time Were issued in the NO-DO.
