Adela Medrano – Esculturas para un paisaje AKA Sculptures for a Landscape (1975)
1971-1980Adela MedranoDocumentaryShort FilmSpainSpanish cinema under Franco
Info from the Filmoteca Española (auto-translated):
Sculptures for a Landscape (1975) is about the sculptures that were finalists in the International Sculpture Competition for the Mediterranean Highway. The documentary presented several complications during its production: it was very difficult to frame the sculptures due to their large size and the outdoor filming was highly conditioned by the weather. Medrano always had very small budgets, so her team usually consisted of herself, a camera assistant and a sound engineer, and they could not count on cranes or other materials that would have facilitated the filming. So this work was a constant exercise in ingenuity on the part of the director.Read More » -
