Have you ever got yourself all tangled up running from one city booth to the next? Well there’s no risk of that at this booth. Oscar Briou and Augusto Pedraza will welcome you and your administrative woes, and in return offer you other stories collected before (and maybe even during) the festival. Anonymously, of course.
If you don’t have any stories to drop off, you can still visit the two booth holders, who will tell you stories in the language of your choice (FR, NL, EN, ES, IT, PT) and immerse you in someone else’s story for a moment.
