Enrique Morente, Leonard Cohen, Federico García Lorca, and Lagartija Nick. Anguished quejíos, ancestral seguiriyas, futuristic bulerías, and distorted guitars. This year marks 30 years since an absolute classic conceived in Granada came to life: Omega. And exactly 10 years ago, In-Edit opened its 14th edition with this documentary on the creative process behind that milestone in the fusion of flamenco and rock, and of 20th-century Spanish music—misunderstood and controversial at the time. Through archival footage and key firsthand accounts—including members of Lagartija Nick, the Morente clan, Alberto Manzano, and Tomatito—the documentary portrays the tensions, cultural clash, initial incomprehension, and creative genius that made it possible. Omega was not just an album, but a family affair and the struggle of artists defending their vision against all odds.
Cast: Enrique Morente, Estrella Morente, Antonio Arias, Laura García Lorca, Soleá Morente, Tomatito, Leonard Cohen, Alberto Manzano, Lee Ranaldo.
