Pura Vida! 🌴✨💭 ¡Bienvenid@s a este rincón de pura buena onda en Barcelona! Aquí nos juntamos para charlar de lo profundo y lo ligero: filosofía que nos hace pensar, felicidad que se siente en el cuerpo y alma, y ese arte de vivir con bienestar real (inspirado en la esencia costarricense de "Pura Vida": una vida simple, agradecida, llena de alegría y sin estrés innecesario). Hablaremos de preguntas grandes como ¿qué significa ser feliz de verdad?, ¿cómo equilibrar mente, energía y emociones?, mindfulness, sabiduría antigua, energía vital... y cómo todo esto se conecta con el día a día en esta ciudad mágica. Todo en un ambiente relajado, abierto y sin juicios – mezcla de deep talks, risas, ideas locas y buena vibra. Ideal para pensadores curiosos, buscadores de paz interior, o simplemente quien quiera conectar con gente interesante. ¡Locals, expats, hablantes de español/inglés/catalán – todos bienvenidos! No hace falta ser experto en filosofía: solo ganas de compartir, escuchar y salir con más luz interior. 🌿😊 **Cuota de participación:** 5€ por encuentro (ayuda a cubrir el espacio y mi proyecto social - o mantenemos cozy y sostenible!) Próximos encuentros pronto – en parques soleados, cafés con encanto o rincones tranquilos de Barcelona. ¡Ven a vivir un poco más Pura Vida con nosotros! RSVP y únete a la aventura 💫 #PuraVidaBarcelona #FelicidadYFilosofia #BienestarReal #FilosofiaBarcelona #AcupunctureVibes #VidaConsciente

Un encuentro abierto a todo el mundo donde conocer esta práctica filosófica de ayuda existencial muy inovadora, que se pone entre la terápia psicologica y el coaching motivacional, no siendo ni la primera ni la segunda. Un momento para aprender de donde viene y como se desarrolla un tipo de diálogo que sirve para enfrentarse a lo que nos bloquea, asusta o lastima en nuestro dia dia. Durante el encuentro se podría realizar un ejemplo concreto de como comienza este tipo de ayuda filosófica. El evento es sin coste.

!Unete a este evento Excepcional! Dos mundos llenos de infinitas maravillas se juntan para que florezca un dialogo común sobre cuestiónes centrales para nuestra vida colectiva. Gracias al Filosofo del dialogo Emanuele Profumi, y al trovador cubano William Rey, Musica y Filosofia marcharán unidas para inspirar a los participantes nuevas ideas, dudas positivas o viejas certezas, para que se comparten en una investigaciòn dialogica que no tenga miedo de entrar en el laberinto del pensar sintiendo e imaginando. El tema de este segundo taller-evento es una pregunta siempre actual, a la cual se tendría que contestar a nivel intimo y no solo: Amor contra Amor? Que pasa cuando dos formas de Amor se oponen y chocan? Gracias a las musicas de Silvio Rodriguez y de otros musicos relevantes de nuestro presente, entraremos en el laberinto de esta cuestión, para orientarnos e intentar encontrar una o mas salidas del laberinto. El coste del evento-taller es de 8 euros. Se requiere también una libre consumición al café para participar (un agua son 1 euro y 70 centimos). Aforo limitado (20 personas). Para reservar hay que enviar un mensaje whatsapp a este numero: +34 613937727. !Os esperamos!

**NOTE: This is NOT a screening, please watch the movie before the discussion.** *"Hey Ted, where the hell's the corkscrew?!"* *Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter* arrives at a point where the series knows exactly what it is. Picking up immediately after Part 3, the film traps a new group of unlucky victims near Camp Crystal Lake as Jason Voorhees continues his unstoppable march through the annals of horror history. Lean, mean, and packed with some of the series’ most memorable kills, *The Final Chapter* distills the formula to its sharpest elements — suspense, savagery, and a mounting sense of inevitability — before slamming the door shut with brutal efficiency. Often regarded as the strongest entry in the original series, the film balances classic slasher suspense with some of the most effective practical effects of the era. It’s a no-frills, high-impact installment that solidified Jason as a horror icon. ***

**CONTENT WARNING: Disease, mutilation, abortion.** **This film contains extreme body horror, prolonged depictions of illness and bodily decay, environmental contamination, and disturbing imagery. It also includes references to pregnancy loss and a graphic act involving the removal of a fetus from a woman’s body. Themes of obsession, emotional distress, and death are central to the film. Viewer discretion is strongly advised. You are welcome to step out at any time.** Please read the original manga ahead of the dicussion: https://mangadex.org/chapter/bf397fc1-17bc-4fa1-8cd7-2cfd35f8170c Hideshi Hino's *Mermaid in a Manhole* is body horror stripped of bravado. When a lonely artist encounters a dying mermaid trapped in an underground sewer, he attempts to care for her — documenting her condition as her body deteriorates in disturbing and intimate ways. What begins as a strange act of compassion transforms into a bleak meditation on decay, obsession, and environmental collapse. Blending body horror with tragic romance, the film replaces shock-for-shock’s-sake with an atmosphere of sickness and inevitability that seeps into every frame.

Send Help is a 2026 psychological thriller directed by Sam Raimi, starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien as two colleagues stranded on a deserted island after a plane crash, leading to a dark, comedic, and unsettling battle of wits.

**Joyful Mind Zendo** is happy to invite you to our **first film night** screening the Wim Wenders Oscar nominated film, **Perfect Days**. **Details:** * Come at **6:00 PM** to the **basement Zendo (back door)** to help set up. * Bring pizza, popcorn, dips, or beverages to share. * The screening will begin promptly at **6:30 PM**. * The films running time is 2hrs 4min, and will be followed by a short break and discussion. * Our evening will end by 9:30 PM. * Here is the [trailer](https://youtu.be/QzZBbX5A1FA?si=zTjQF8_t4oDzz3pd). * **See you soon and invite a friend!** | | | --- | | Perfect Days follows Hirayama, a middle-aged man living a life of humble simplicity in Tokyo. His days are governed by a meticulous routine: he wakes at dawn to the sound of a street sweeper, tends to his maple saplings, and drives his small van through the city to his job cleaning public toilets. Despite the seemingly lowly nature of his work, Hirayama performs his duties with the grace and precision of a master craftsman, finding deep contentment in the order and service he provides. | The core of Perfect Days is a celebration of presence and the dignity of labor\. Director Wim Wenders suggests that a meaningful life is not found in grand ambitions or material wealth\, but in the intentional appreciation of the here and now\. The film posits that true freedom comes from accepting life's limitations and finding 'perfection' in the subtle\, fleeting moments of harmony between humanity and nature\, encapsulated in the Japanese concept of Komerobi\. \|

[Profs and Pints Northern Virginia](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **“Love and Monsters,”** on the inescapable bond between romance and horror, with Joshua Barton, scholar of horror and lecturer in English at Virginia Commonwealth University. [Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://www.ticketleap.events/tickets/profsandpints/nv-love-monsters](https://www.ticketleap.events/tickets/profsandpints/nv-love-monsters) .] Romance and horror might seem like opposite genres, but they share a deep emotional core, and the combination of them has captivated audiences across time and culture. Put even your worst Valentine’s Day in perspective by hearing this strange relationship discussed by Joshua Barton, who has earned a big following among Profs and Pints fans with his past talks on cryptids, American horror, and Christmas ghosts. He’ll explore the undeniable and unsettling intersection of romance and horror and examine how and why love and fear intensify each other and combined to create tension, drive narratives, and explore human vulnerability. We’ll look at works that have blended passion and terror, including Gothic literature like the vampire novella *Carmilla* and modern films like *Spring* and *Crimson Peak*. We’ll study the fine line between obsession and adoration running through Stephen King’s “I Know What You Need,” Adrian Lyne’s *Fatal Attraction*, and the timeless *The Phantom of the Opera.* We’ll discuss the seeds of monstrous love that were planted with *Beauty and the Beast* and *Creature from the Black Lagoon* and bloom ferociously in works like *Twilight* and *The Shape of Water*. Through it all, we’ll find the threads of otherness and the taboo that intertwine horror, love, and reflections on identity. Join us for a journey through storytelling that combines the grotesque and the scintillating as we uncover why romance and horror are a match made in the dark. (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. Talk starts 30 minutes later.) Image: From the original 1954 advertising poster for *Creature from the Black Lagoon* (Artist: Reynold Brown / Public Domain).

Join us as we host our next screening of Alma’s Rainbow (1994) by Ayoka Chenzira! This film is 85 minutes and an optional short discussion with the group will follow. **This event will tentatively be hosted at the MLK Library.** Synopsis: A rediscovered treasure of independent cinema, this incisive comedic drama follows Rainbow Gold (Victoria Gabrielle Platt), a teenager coming of age in Brooklyn, as she looks to two vastly different models of womanhood: her straitlaced mother, Alma (Kim Weston-Moran), who runs a hair salon in the parlor of their home and disapproves of her daughter’s newfound interest in boys; and her free-spirited, larger-than-life aunt Ruby (Mizan Kirby), who has just returned from Paris after a ten-year absence and whose presence shakes up the household. Bursting with the bold Day-Glo colors of nineties fashion, this dazzling feature from feminist filmmaker and animator Ayoka Chenzira grapples with questions of Black women’s sexuality, agency, and self-image from a multigenerational perspective. (Criterion)
