Harvest of Harvests (30') is a documentary opened in 2008 that reflects on the role of peasant memory in imagining alternative futures. I did it with my sister Carla, who took care of the editing, and Gerard Marcó, responsible for the production (see his short movie Salm 51). The cinema director Isaki Lacuesta, winner of the Golden Shell in the San Sebastián International Film Festival 2011 for the film The double steps, helped me with the script. The original idea (and actually the main argument of the documentary) was by artist Perejaume, one of the characters of the film. If you happen to be in Barcelona I highly recommend you his retrospective exhibition in La Pedrera (opened until 25 February 2012), which brings together around two hundred works of the last twenty years around the idea of 'decreasing'.
You can now see Harvest of Harvests with English and Spanish subtitles through the links below. The original version in Catalan is available in this post.
M'ha agradat molt, molt el vídeo i la xerrada d'avui a la Pedrera encara més, llastima que no hagi pogut haver-hi una mica mes de debat al final.
