FOOTDISTRICT continues FOOTNOTES, the conversation series focused on exploring the cultural and stylistic universes surrounding different contemporary phenomena. In this second chapter, we speak with Jaume Ripoll, editorial director of FILMIN and one of the key figures behind the recent transformation of film culture in Spain.
A conversation about cinema, culture and recommendation
The conversation with Jaume Ripoll emerges from several shared ideas connected to the FOOTDISTRICT universe: the importance of cultural spaces, the value of recommendation and the creation of references capable of connecting different generations and communities.
Through his personal and professional journey, Ripoll reflects on different stages of recent cultural transformation. From his beginnings in the family video store, understood as a place for discovery and conversation, to his role as a cultural curator, his experience in film distribution, his current position as editorial director of FILMIN and his involvement in projects such as Atlàntida Mallorca Film Fest.
The conversation also explores the transition from physical to digital spaces, the emotional relationship we establish with cultural environments and the role of cinema in shaping visual imaginaries and aesthetic patterns that eventually move beyond the screen.
A reflection on how we consume culture, how we build taste and how certain films, images and narratives survive the passing of time to become part of everyday life.
SEGUNDO ESPACIO as a meeting point
The episode takes place at SEGUNDO ESPACIO in Barcelona, the FOOTDISTRICT space created to develop conversations and connect different perspectives around contemporary culture.
As with the rest of the FOOTNOTES episodes, the project reclaims the idea of retail as a space for cultural exchange. Places where conversations go beyond product and help build references, context and community.
