Empoderío (2025)
Amid laughter and companionship, a group of gypsy women improvise sequences in a room at the Otxarkoaga Civic Centre. The soft morning light filters through the purple curtains, while one of them dissects a film about a group of gypsy women at a performance workshop. Reality and fiction merge. Playfulness, fun, empowerment and sisterhood all combine in this documentary, intended as a love letter to the gypsy women of the Basque Country. A bridge, a joyful song and hands clapping in the wind, reminding us that stories (even if improvised and invented) are what we need to bring different people together.
