In this laid-back conversation with director Elena Lopez Riera we discuss her cinema in a relaxed atmosphere, blurring the boundaries between theory of cinema and life, fiction and reality, laughs and essential discussions on identity. Elena talks to Rafa and Alberto about elements of her cinema like the representation of disarray as well as her interest in how regional rituals shape the individual-community spirit of this part of Spain -and how those pass from one generation to the next-. We also get to talk to Elena about her upcoming first feature “El Agua” featuring Barbara Lennie and Nieve de Medina.
Unsophisticated, atavistic and incredibly poetic, Elena Lopez Riera cinema walks in the limits of non-fiction. Raw, powerful, earthy and yet, with a lyrical spirit and a constant desire to fly away.
The traditions and memory of the place are filmed as a fascinating and often spectral presence, catalysts for the ancient and the modern, bringing together generations and heterogeneous groups creating community. Linked to the interest in ritual and the exploration of origins.
From the Spanish Easter processions to colombiculture to the slaughter of the rabbit, small acts of daily life that leave a mark in the memory of Spanish youth. Little acts that passed from one generation to the next.
They are presented as vestiges of a culture that unites past and present and that, in turn, serve Elena Lopez Riera to connect with her roots.
