Donde acaba la memoria

Directed by Pablo Romero-Fresco

Synopsis

Where Memory Ends' is a documentary written, directed and produced by Pablo Romero-Fresco that follows in the footsteps of Irishman Ian Gibson, who has reconstructed the lives of Luis Buñuel, Salvador Dalí and Federico García Lorca through their biographies. Gibson decides to embark on an expedition with the intention of achieving the goal he has been pursuing for fifty years: to find the remains of the poet who was shot, in an attempt to reconcile a country that is still more than divided by its historical past.

The documentary is a journey through Las Hurdes, the Residencia de Estudiantes where the three Spanish emblems met, and finishes in Granada. The journey begins 85 years after Buñuel visited Las Hurdes for the first time, in 1933, to later portray it in his documentary 'Land Without Bread' or 'Unpromised land'.

The documentary features the participation of professionals and experts such as Ian Gibson himself, the BBC documentary maker Mike Dibb, winner of a Bafta and an Emmy, the filmmaker and photographer Carlos Saura, the writer and poet José Luis Puerto, and the film historians and writers Román Gubern and Paul Hammond, as well as the collaboration of Cheli Durán, daughter of Gustavo Durán, and the inhabitants of the locations visited.
