Basque Country, 2024 | 150 min | Performance
A film team visits the roads and villages of northern Spain during the summer. They are following in the steps of the clandestine group Cantacronache which, in the summer of 1961, during Franco's dictatorship, went around collecting popular resistance songs. Through the prism of oral recollections and sound files recorded in 1961, the two journeys enter into a dialogue mapping the emotional and political geography of a territory in which the wounds of the past are still unhealed.
The session will be accompanied by Amorante's live performance of one of the songs in the film, and other songs from the Elgoibar musician's repertoire, where tradition and modernity go magically hand in hand.
