Another highlight at the event will be 'A Shaded View On Fashion Film' (ASVOFF), which will include screening of short films, panel discussions and lectures by prominent personalities from the world of fashion and design.

ASVOFF will screen a selection of the best works that have participated in 080 Barcelona.
