LA GUITARRA FLAMENCA DE YERAI CORTÉS * Film Screening on Nov. 7, Orlando, Florida

THE FLAMENCO GUITAR OF YERAI CORTÉS

One fateful night, rapper Antón Álvarez, better known as C. Tangana, witnessed an awe-inspiring performance by the gifted young flamenco guitarist Yerai Cortés. Inspired to pick up the camera for the first time, Álvarez follows the budding musician as he writes and records his deeply personal debut solo album. Drawing on the traditions of his gitano roots, while still pushing the boundaries of contemporary flamenco, Cortés exhumes his family’s painful history to craft a masterwork. But as he tries to reconcile the past and his parents’ difficult relationship, Cortés’ own struggles with his girlfriend, Tania (an accomplished singer in her own right), emerge. Filled with incredible performances and heartbreaking revelations, this vibrant reminder of the power of song won Best Documentary at the 2025 Goya Awards, while Álcarez, Córtes and Tania won Best Original Song for their wistful collaboration “Los almendros.” –Josh Gardner
