criticism

  • film-dienst 11/2006: A musical journey inspired by Isaac Albéniz's suite of the same name through different regions of Spain without claim to ethnic authenticity, which thrives on the alternation of visual and musical rhythms, connects seemingly non-connectable things and conveys a multi-layered portrait of Spanish identity. The stylization of the individual regions works through the excellent image design, the play with mirrors, colors, light and shadow, but above all through dance and music, whereby Carlos Saura brings the great masters of flamenco together.

Awards

In 2006, the film received an award for Best Camera at the Goya Awards, as well as nominations for Best Documentation and Best Editing .
