FILM CYCLE 'FLAMENCO GARCÍA LORCA'

This program proposes an audiovisual journey through the poet's imprint on cinema and visual avant-gardes, focusing on his relationship with flamenco, Romani culture, and artistic modernity. Moving away from folkloric clichés, Federico García Lorca understood flamenco as a tragic and popular form of knowledge, shaped by history, the body, and conflict. Through documentaries, experimental pieces, and stage recordings, the cycle brings post-war ethnographic portraits into dialogue with the formal explorations of filmmakers such as José Val del Omar, as well as with the theatrical and political echoes of the sixties and seventies. A collection of scattered images, remnants, and resonances that allow us to think of flamenco not as a fixed tradition, but as a living force, intertwined with poetry, the avant-garde, and collective history.
