Cosmopolite Scene

This year’s closing night ceremony will be at Cosmopolite with a concert from The Turbans and a sneak peek of Lido Pimientas TV series, Lido TV.

Pophybrid, afrofuturistic rebel, global artist, and now the creative creator of the eccentric satirical TV series Lido TV. We will show two fresh episodes of Canadian-Colombian Lido Pimienta’s new TV series, which had its world premiere at the film festival in Toronto earlier this year.

The episodes FEMINISM and HATE have been picked out for screening, as part of our closing night ceremony at Cosmopolite. From her colorfully decorated studio, with the help of her super cute friends, we join Pimienta’s piercing look at racism, Internet trolls and macho stupidity in the Colombian DJ scene.
