An exploration of the good and the bad that he has encountered, La Línea de Sombra is a cinematic journey through the life and career of celebrated artist and photographer, Alberto García-Alix. The Spanish-born photographer from León is a leading figure in "La Movida Madrileña," a countercultural movement that took place during the Spanish transition to democracy in the post-Franco era. Capturing raw and powerful images, his work is recognized to be a strikingly honest reflection of the times he lived and worked in.
La Línea de Sombra is a nod to 1980s Spain, as it is a profound portrayal of both the artist and his contemporaries who lived through the ups and downs of the state photographic scene. Film in an intimate, visceral style, the documentary film introduces the audience to both a past and present-day depiction of García-Alix's life.
The screening is in Spanish and there will be a limited capacity, reservations are required.
