THE LAST SUMMER

For the past three decades projectionist Miguel Ángel has been travelling all over Spain where he organises improvised open-air film screenings during the summer. This quirky man, whose two life passions are time-honoured 35mm film and the flamenco, has nevertheless been experiencing hard times in recent years. He has witnessed the decline of celluloid film, relentlessly driven out by digital formats. But the costs of new projection equipment, which offers an almost inhumanly perfect visual experience, are considerable; the economic crisis affecting Spain hasn’t helped, either. For Miguel Ángel’s travelling cinema the coming summer might well be the last. The debuting director recasts a very human story into a discourse on a profession in gradual decline. Her precisely composed observational documentary might also be taken as a more general belief that technical progress needn’t necessarily benefit society since it might cause us to lose sight of certain values.

COSMIC CHANT. NIÑO DE ELCHE

Niño de Elche is an artist. He is a singer-songwriter. He is an erudite. He is his parents' son. He is from Elche. He is all these things and none at the same time. “Cosmic Chant. Niño de Elche” is a multifaceted portrait through the gazes of those who surround, love and observe him and share his art. C. Tangana, Angélica Lidell, Pedro G. Romero, Raúl Cantizano, Israel Galván or Paqui and Aladino, his parents, are just some of the voices that together with Paco’s (Niño de Elche) build this open and almost cubist portrait of the most innovative new flamenco singer in Spain.
