To celebrate 100 years of Catalan Studies at the University of Liverpool, the Catalan Government Delegation in the UK and Ireland sponsored a beautiful wine reception after our Symposium, catered by Lunya for a traditional Catalan experience.
 
It was an honour to have so many guests from the university and other institutions, such as the Institut Ramon Llull, the Instituto Cervantes, the Spanish Consulate, other universities in the UK and Ireland, and even Sweden, as well as the Lord Mayor of Liverpool; but also guests who live in the UK but have links with Catalan and Catalonia.

The film Mamífera was one of the great revelations of Catalan/Spanish cinema in 2024, featuring outstanding performances by Maria Rodríguez Soto and Enric Auquer, two of the most highly regarded actors of recent years.

Shot in Catalan language, the film explores the concept of motherhood. The protagonist, Lola, enjoys a happy life with her partner, Bruno, until an unexpected pregnancy turns her world upside down.
