Paco de Lucía - La búsqueda

Spain 2014 | 90 minutes | Spanish | Hebrew, English subtitles

A remarkably intimate look into the life of the legendary Andalusian guitarist Francisco Gustavo Sánchez Gómez known as Paco de Lucía, who died on 2014 at the age of 66. He conquered the world by pushing the boundaries of traditional flamenco. This film - made by his son Curro Sánchez - covers 60 years of musical exploration and personal development - all the way from the first time the penniless young Paco picked up a guitar in his birth city of Algeciras to the creation of his final album Canción Andaluza. The backbone of the film is formed by several interviews with Paco recorded from 2010 to 2014 and with legendary exponents of flamenco Jos. Greco, Sabicas, Niño Ricardo and Bambino Camarón.
