Luna Negra delves into the poetic and magical universe of flamenco in Granada, with dancer Alba Heredia as the protagonist, to investigate the nature of the so-called “Flamenco Duende”.
For 3 years, the directors Miguel Goñi and Mikel Belascoain have had access to fundamental milestones in the life of Alba Heredia, such as her wedding, celebrated by the gypsy rite, and the birth of her son. The dancer has also opened the doors to the secrets of her dance and the ancestral gypsy tradition of her family.
The film shot in black and white constitutes an observational and poetic document of Flamenco roots, which finds great parallels in the poetry of Federico García Lorca.

Plastic artist, documentary film director and creator.
My work is developed around the idea of New Art. Experiment based on dialogue. The free and anarchic dialogue between artistic disciplines, with other artists and with other areas of knowledge. I consider that my works must transcend their material nature and for this I also experiment with space and time, as essential elements to create atmospheres and holistic proposals.
Painting is the center of my work and I develop it through all kinds of formats, from drawing, canvas to large-format installations. Painting is also the beginning of any creation, since it provides me with information and knowledge that is inaccessible to me through language. For this reason, I conceive painting as a window to new ideas.
On a philosophical level, I identify with vitalism and I am especially interested in the transforming capacity that people have with our gaze. I find in the conscious and unconscious gaze an act of creation and an activist, poetic and revolutionary position.
