This is a past event

Due to unforeseen circumstances, our speaker for the Philosophy Public Lecture ‘Confederates, Rhodes and Honour: Obligations to Remove Cultural Artefacts’, Prof Helen Frowe, will be unable to travel to Aberdeen today. This event will now consist of a free screening of the film ‘The Silence of Others’ starting at 6pm.

The Silence of Others

This multiple award-winning documentary chronicles a growing grassroots campaign by victims of Franco’s regime to bring his surviving henchmen to justice, despite a state-enforced amnesia regarding the crimes against humanity that were committed during the dictatorship. The Silence of Others reveals a country still deeply divided four decades into democracy, and brings into relief the fragility of democratic institutions.

This event is sponsored by the Royal Institute of Philosophy. Free & ticketed. Tickets can be booked via the Belmont Filmhouse website.
