The Spanish Experimentals - EDUCATIONAL
Here you have three experimental shorts that Eve A. Ma created in southern Spain, in and near the charming city of Jerez de la Frontera. "Two Streets & Adela" (28 min.) tells the story of Adela, a flamenco costume maker who lives in the so-called cradle of flamenco, on a very special day in her life. "Tone Poem with Hang Drum" (18 min.) imagines the story that music from a hang drum - a sonorous instrument that looks a little bit like a very small flying saucer - creates in the mind of the musician improvising upon it. And "Her (Ella)" (4 min.), without a word of dialogue, shows us the story of the man, the street and the flower.
