What is lost and what is transformed when we change languages? Is it possible to translate an experience, an identity or a way of seeing the world? How is the memory of displacement passed on to generations that have not experienced it first-hand?

In the written and visual work of Xiaolu Guo and Xisi Sofia Ye Chen, translation emerges as a linguistic, emotional, cultural and political question. In the film She, a Chinese (2009) and the novel on which it is based, I Am China (ICIP/Angle Editorial, 2026), Guo explores exile, failures of communication and the difficulties of understanding others. In conversation with Ye Chen, director of the award-winning documentary La noche de la infancia (2025), she will reflect on how identity is constructed when belonging is no longer tied to a single place, language or history.

Session with simultaneous interpretation.
