00:00I believe that what is happening is unprecedented, because what Minister Holguín is doing is a
00:06Something that I believe no one, not even in their worst nightmares, could have predicted.
00:15I know many people who already have completed projects but are simply not getting paid, just because.
00:24because the president decided that culture cannot be given money.
00:28It's a criminal thing, I mean, I think it's a tragedy and I think it's also very serious and
00:36very dangerous for a country, I mean, like one of the first acts of a president being to attack the sector
00:44To have it culturally in such a direct way is a terrifying thing.
00:52It greatly undermines the work we do, and indeed the entire cultural sector.
00:57If the president already says that this is the first thing that needs to be cut because who cares, then...
01:02who serves art and culture.
01:04I believe that comes in difficult times, when it will no longer be about supporting
01:09the spaces and the artists, but it will not be defended now.
01:16I believe that a few years ago, when the social uprising occurred, it was necessary for the artistic and cultural community to...
01:23In general, we'll meet again, and I think we're heading for that again; it's probably going to happen again.
01:28Let's join forces,
01:30to join forces, sorry, and how to assert our space, our rights, and what Santi says is true,
01:44What we do is also important and provides a livelihood for many people.
01:48Because it's not just the artists, but everything that revolves around culture and, as such, the teams
01:55technicians, the production companies that handle the logistics of the events,
02:01In short, it's like it's damage that isn't just to us, it's to a whole patch that
02:06It's around.
