When the heat squeezes, the Garden Sergio Algora de Harinera ZGZ becomes a perfect shelter: shadow, good atmosphere and insured laughter. This month, the “cinema in the shadow: Charlot, the silent soul of the twentieth century” pays tribute to Charles Chaplin with a selection of shorts and feature films that show that there is no need to excite and cause laughter.
The unforgettable vagabond of bombin, cane and immense heart will be the host of four free sessions that combine humor, social criticism and visual poetry. From the tenderness of “The Kid” to the most unbridled slapstick of “The Rink” or “The Pawnshop”, through such emblematic pieces as “The Immigrant” or “Easy Street”, the cycle allows you to rediscover Chaplin on a large and outdoor screen.

The projections are held in the Sergio Algora Garden (Avda. San José, 201-203), with free access until capacity is completed. Harinera ZGZ remembers that this is an accessible culture space and that, in addition to free admission, the public can enjoy the freshness of the sunset between trees, in a relaxed and familiar atmosphere.
