Libres

In a world of constant noise, there is a place where peace, nature and silence have an abysmal protagonism: monasteries. And it is that, in the 21st century, there are still people who decide to lock themselves within the walls of some of them. In Spain, which has been the cradle of contemplation for centuries, there is a large presence of monasteries that are still active and thousands of monks who continue to live under the cloister. 'Libres', is an exhibition of it. An investigation that seeks to know the reasons that lead these monks to enter there, how it is their day to day, their motivations, their connection with pure Nature or their external life, which is tremendously related to the interior. This documentary is a journey into a man interior and especially a deep inmersion in their concept of freedom.
