Rumba tres, de ida y vuelta

Tuesday 12 - 20:00 Trueba cinemas

Joan Capdevila, David Casademunt - 90' - Spain

— Back —

A panegyric to the most jubilant Catalan rumba band. The trio's zest for life was like a break in the storm clouds of Francoism. And they weren't born with silver spoons in their mouths, either. Theirs is a story of stardom and gas station tapes, of brilliant songs and "diabolical" dancers, of family warmth, poverty and rhythm. It's a story of overcoming: sadness, the abuse to which they were subjected in the school-prison, being born in the boondocks. And it's a story of damned redemption. Of how the Capdevila brothers and their buddy José Sardaña, Barcelonian and mullet-tastic, won all the festivals, made a grey country shimmy, were pursued by tireless groupies and travelled to every corner of the peninsula to one gala or another (risking their lives). It's a story of matrimonial love, despite the tours and wild affairs. A story of family and cohesion and hitsoverty and rhythm.
