Summary
A remarkable and educational ethnographic documentary on Bertsolaritza, an ancestral, completely improvised form of Basque poetry. This oral tradition has skillfully evolved and adapted to the times, connecting with the youngest generations with its undeniable formal similarities to rap and other improvised music and art forms.. Official Selection at the San Sebastian Film Festival. Winner of Best Cinematography at the Cine Cear? - National Cinema Festival.. “Asier Altuna has weaved a beautiful piece?Bertsolari is a proud homage, created by people capable of appreciating how much emotion and meaning there is among the bertsolaris, and translate it to the screen with pleasure” ? Mikel G. Gurpegui, El Diario Vasco
