The Cinema Urbana International Architecture Film Festival is an event dedicated to investigating the relationships between cinema, architecture, and the city, promoting critical reflection on the ways of inhabiting and representing contemporary space. Held in Brasília since 2018, the festival brings together films, debates, and educational activities that address urban, cultural, and environmental issues, creating a space for dialogue across different fields of knowledge.
As part of the academic dialogue and reflection space "From Territory to Detail," which brings together architecture professors, students, and renowned architects, the spin-off "From Territory to Detail .re"—positioned at the opposite end of a modern paradigm that defined the city through models of growth, expansion, and consumption that are no longer viable or sustainable—explores the thesis that a territory’s richness stems from its capacity to renew itself. It activates disused spaces to serve as future challenges and resources by reusing previous structures and traces, whatever they may be.

Master's Program in Technological Facades and Sustainable Envelopes 2026–2027
In a territory where the horizon is often hemmed in by smokestacks, fisheries, and high-voltage towers, a question arises that challenges the logic of extractivism and what is commonly understood as "development": From where can we begin to dream again? Guided by this premise, visual artist Constanza Hermosilla and architect Julio Suárez present their interdisciplinary artistic project: "Detrás de las industrias se esconde el sol" (Behind the Industries, the Sun Hides), an experimental documentary that subverts the narrative of the "sacrifice zone" to propose a speculative exercise through fiction.
