Un impulso colectivo - Curts Spain 32 min World premiere Fiction

Synopsis

Mikel, a 23-year-old mechanic, comes back from work. In the darkness of the night, in one of the streets of his town, he meets his friend Sambou. He tells him that he must go to Epiola before leaving and asks Mikel to accompany him. On a journey that seems to have no end, they visit the places where they lived in their childhood, traveling toward what one day, together, they were. Their fears, desires, and frustrations plunge them into an increasingly silent journey. They no longer remember where Epiola is. They have forgotten the way. They seem to have gotten stuck in their own memories.

They met at ESCAC, where they built a collective that shared creative points of view. Erroitz laid the initial stone for a path of creation and complicity. They worked together for the first time in Euskadi and they began to lay the foundations of what they are. Then came Laiotz and A rabassa morta, short films shot in 16 mm. Now the collective faces its first feature film, Negu Hurbilak.
