La Plata, Argentina.   While the main role of the lecturer is to teach Basque language and culture in a university setting, it also includes organizing activities with the same goal in mind of “introducing the reality of the Basque Country, present and past, through art, language, as referents in Argentina...”  That is how lectures, get-togethers, celebrations, like the International Day of Euskera, or Korrika, to name a few, have taken place throughout the school year.  

This time, the invitation has to do with the sevsienth art, and the organization of “Cinevasc,” a Basque Film Series that the lectureship in La Plata has organized with the collaboration of the city of La Plata and the National University in La Plata (UNLP).  “Cinevasc,” begins on Monday with the following program:
