The 16th of November marks the tenth anniversary of the nomination of flamenco as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by Unesco. For this reason, the Fundación Tres Culturas has programmed a mini-cycle of films (from the 16th to the 21st of November) with three very current films with the aim of highlighting flamenco and the whole cast of artists who express themselves through song, dance and musical instruments.
We will start the cycle with the film No, a Flemish taleby José Luis Tirado, which talks about human values, reality and everyday art. We will continue with La Chanaby Lucija Stojevic, a documentary awarded at several festivals that talks about a great artist, Antonia Santiago Amador, the lights and shadows of a life dedicated to creation. Finally, the film Singing is prohibitedby directors Félix Vázquez and Paco Ortiz, another recent documentary in which the Sevillian cantaora Esperanza Fernández, one of the main voices of today's flamenco, will guide us through the flamenco peñas of Andalusia.
