Overview

This short documentary, with its aim of exposing the festival from the perspective of Andalusian culture and anthropology, delves into the complexities of this celebration. Understanding how difficult it is for outsiders to grasp that a saint could be a member of the UGT (General Union of Workers) during the Civil War and possess a membership card, we gradually decipher the festival while simultaneously revealing features common to many other celebrations deeply rooted in the culture and popular religiosity of the Andalusian people, such as the presence of a communist mayor presiding over the saint's procession and offering cheers.

De Despeñaperros Pa' Bajo

Jun 26, 2024

Rafael was the outlandish mayor of a small Andalusian village until his absent-minded eccentricities caused him to draw in the village elections. Now he has a clear objective: to win in the second elections. His best idea is to organise and star in a documentary to brag about 'his people'. Through these cameras we will get to know one of the crazy traditions of the village. But also, the criticism and laughter that his dubious management arouses, and the irrefutable prudence of Victoria, his competitor. All these problems will explode back at him... literally.

Southern Border

Jan 1, 2003

On the border, the line as principle of property and belonging reaches an extreme dimension where it physically defines the sphere of its relations. Those who transgress it reconstruct these imaginary lines on a daily basis, redefining the traditional geography and occupying the non-spaces where others live in a temporary form of existence. These others, the non-citizens, are phantasmtic, exchangeable parts of a flexible market. Made invisible, they are permanently controlled persons. Under the pretext of a greater civilian security, they are kept clear from the public spaces reserved for the citizens with rights and pushed into non-public spaces, which are run by state and military surveillance, multinational operations servicing a European market and non-governmental organisations.

Religious-based images and traditions permeate the lives of all the people who inhabit Seville. Historically, the city's mariquitas ("sissies") have also assimilated them in their childhood and, through them, have been creating their own encounter spaces and their own codes. Nowadays, new dissident identities continue to respond to them: they participate or distance themselves, they continue what exists or transform it. This film looks at these traditions from a perspective always relegated to the margins.
