The masterpiece Christmas on Earth broke many patterns and shocked the New York experimental film scene. Its author, experimental filmmaker Barbara Rubin, made the film when she was just 18 years old. During her career, she worked with Jonas Mekas at the Filmmaker's Coop, collaborated with Andy Warhol, and was instrumental in creating New York's thriving underground film community.

For years, filmmaker Jonas Mekas kept all of Barbara's letters and preserved her memory. Working with the images of Mekas and the strange clips of Andy Warhol, the documentary transports us to the world and the mind of Barbara Rubin, a filmmaker who really believed that cinema could change the world.

Filmi will be screened in original version, subtitled in Spanish.
