True Love
Ion De Sosa
Ion De Sosa, Marta Bassols
Ion used to live in Berlin. He lived there with his girlfriend Marta. He had two cameras, a 16 mm one and a video tape one. Ion used to record everything in his little universe: his room, his friends, his girlfriend, the restaurant he used to work in, his tattoos and the city landscape. One day, though, Marta left him. Now, he shoots the same spaces, but without her presence. The house is empty. A personal portrait of a city and a separation.
True Love
Leyenda dorada
Ion De Sosa, Chema García Ibarra
Nuria Rey Burgos, Laura Molano Chancal
The swimming pool has played an important role throughout film history – most often as a romping ground for the sophisticated and hedonistic Dolce Vita. But it can be so much more, even sinister, as in Sunset Boulevard. In Leyenda dorada a rather unglamorous swimming pool of diminished charm forms the focal point of the story. A lazy summer’s day in the Spanish village of Montánchez, and people of all ages enjoy themselves at the outdoor pool. It is an almost utopian depiction of community, under the lofty, watchful gaze of Our Lady of Consolation. While conflicts, aggression, rivalries and animosities have a siesta, the villagers take a well-deserved break. Formally, the film draws on the tradition of New Objectivity. But unlike Robert Siodmak’s Menschen am Sonntag (1930) and its lido sequence, this is a wee summer fairy tale.
The Golden Legend
Sueñan los androides
Ion De Sosa
Manolo Marín, Moisés Richart
It is the year 2052, on Earth, in Spain, and the final days of almost everything. The city is a string of abandoned construction sites. Everyday there are fewer people and not all of them are human. A sheep costs four and a half million pesetas and you have to spend a lot of bullets to pay for one.
