Sergi Caballero
Spain, 2010
BEST FILM ROTTERDAM 2011. TIGER AWARD.
Sonar music festival is considered the best electronic music festival in the world. Sergi Caballero and two frineds created it in 1994. You had to be a bit nuts to invent such a thing in early 90's in Barcelona.
Fortunately, he is still as insane, so when he proposed me to do this crazy journey of two ghosts through Spain, I saw on him a truly unique director, someone with a very particular vision of cinema and with a very special black humour.
I felt like being offered again a crazy movie, like my first films that taught me more than 5 years in filmschool. Special projects always turn me on.
So there we went, with a supersmall crew and two ghosts, looking for the special touch that will make this film difficult to classify. Do not expect to have seen it before, do not expect to see it again. Some films are just unique.
