MeToo 'made a big difference', says Sigourney Weaver

VALLADOLID, Spain

The #MeToo movement "made a big difference" since women now feel more empowered to say no to unwanted sexual advanced, US actor Sigourney Weaver said on Friday in Spain.

"We knew the Me Too movement wasn't going to change things overnight," she told journalists in the northwestern city of Valladolid.

"It's a problem that women have in every field," the 74-year-old star of the Aliens film franchise added. "I think it has made a big difference to how women feel and how empowered we feel to say no, to say stop."

Weaver, a three-time Oscar nominee, will be honored on Saturday night with a lifetime achievement award at Spain's Goya film awards. Director Pedro Almodovar and actor Penelope Cruz will present several awards at the ceremony.

But it comes a fortnight after three women told El Pais newspaper they had suffered sexual violence at the hands of independent Spanish filmmaker Carlos Vermut.

All asked to remain anonymous, and none has filed a police complaint for fear of the effect on their careers. Interviewed by the newspaper, the filmmaker denied the allegations.

"I'm very sorry to hear about this case, and my heart goes out to the women," said Weaver. "It is women who speak up about this situation and abuses, that are making it safer for all women to work in this industry."

The global #MeToo movement took off in 2017, prompted by accusations of sexual misconduct against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

Women around the world took to social media to disclose sexual harassment and assault across workplaces, governments and campuses.

That sparked investigations and legal processes that helped topple several high-profile men from positions of power.

野沢裕「山脈」 2023.7.15（Sat）― 8.13（Sun）

void+では野沢裕の個展、「山脈」を7月15日（土）から開催いたします。

野沢は東京造形大学の絵画専攻卒業後、東京藝術大学大学院にて絵画専攻修了し、その後スペインのマドリッドにあるIED（Istituto Europeo di Design）にて写真を学びました。野沢の作品は絵画、写真、映像、さらには自身で制作した印刷物など、様々なメディアを横断しながら日常の風景に潜む非常の風景をモチーフに作品を制作しています。日々の何気ない風景に少しユーモラスな仕掛けを重ねることで現れる小さな気づきにフォーカスを当てた作品です。

本展では作家が住む静岡の納屋から見える風景に触発された新作を発表します。

映像インスタレーションでは、中央部が切り開かれ納屋の窓枠に張られてあった画布をギャラリーに持ち込み、カーテンのように揺れ動く開口部から垣間見える山々の景色を再現します。青々と生い茂る山のシルエットをなぞるように揺れる布の映像が、空間の中でかすかに揺れる布に重ね合わされ投影されます。

また、35mmフィルムの原寸にプリントされたモノクロ写真が連なるコラージュ作品は、山の写真と納屋に掛けられたカーテンの写真が互い違いに並べられ、現実にはないイメージの稜線を作り出します。

本展は8月13日（日）までとなりますが8月11〜13日のクロージング3日間は、void+エントランス軒下にあるスペース「eaves」と駐車場において、アーティストの冨樫達彦によるアイスクリームスタンドが出店し、第8回目となるPOP-UP “ARTIST RUNNING” #8 Joel Kirkham by Goya Curtainも同時開催いたします。

皆さまこの機会にどうぞお越しくださいませ。

ーーーーーーーーーーーーー 山脈 野沢裕

朝起きると近くの川辺まで歩いていき『たからもの』だという小石を拾って帰ってくる。 数時間で宝物としての効力が消えるその小石は庭の端に集められ『たからもの』の山になっている。

連なる山々を横目に、行きは海の方向へ車を走らせ、帰りは山を目がけて帰ってくる。 家へと通じる道は1本しかない。 変わらないはずの景色が、その日だけの形に見えている。 ある時、見えている山の稜線は山のそれではなく空の稜線に見えた。車の速度でゆっくりと動くその空は緩やかな風に吹かれるカーテンに見えた。

山に向かって車を走らせていたつもりが、少し窮屈な椅子に座りながら風に揺れる麻のカーテンを眺めていた。

sandra vs the DRES2 subtitles, mid 10s gay pop culture and the void *cracks knuckles*

disclaimer: i was really sure i was not going to write a dissertation this week... i was wrong

the way everyone was so sad when samantha left? i'm in p a i n even if i do agree samantha going home could be seen from miles away, i think in an overacting challenge the true unforgivable thing is being unremarkable *pointedly looks at marina and diamante*

also i will be that bitch and say it: the curse of macarena still lives but it would have lived anyway had jota been the one to leave bc they're all from the same region of spain (jota and estrella are from jerez and maca and samantha from san fernando and both of those places are in the region of cadiz in andalusia... as a curiosity, the only other queen from andalusia is carmen but carmen is from sevilla); estrella glueing her wigs w super glue of all awful things (sagittaria was reading her for that in twitter lmao literally going WHAT WAS THE REASON) makes sense bc with this track record? yes bitch i'd be terrified as well of a wardrobe malfunction

venedita being called putankhamon (pun for whore and tutanchamon) w her mummy look ep2 and iconic in this last one makes sense with my fantasy i am not going to lie to you (even if i'm still surprised she won over estrella)

when they start to dedrag and sethlas says 'a otra cosa mariposa' (to [do] other things butterfly) it's a coloquial way to say the topic of conversation is finished (the closest thing i can come up with as far as coloquialisms in english go is bob's your uncle for british)

venedita saying in the confessionals que pasará que misterio habrá is a lyric from a popular song by raphael (are you truly hispanic if you haven't had a grandmother or auntie torture you with this or with julio iglesias growing up?)

whoever is coming up with the ridiculous entrances to the workroom: que sepáis que os quiero 💞 things i need in my wardrobe: juriji's patent red boots and marina's beret and jean skirt/jacket thingie

when marina explains what happened with juri last week: there's references to donde estás corazón and aquí hay tomate which were two long running gossip tv show from the 00s

when the alarm for the rumail plays and juriji says the alarm gets her excited (cachonda) it's the same word that can be (and in fact is more often than not) used for horny and it's used very much on purpose for the double entendre; the second part of the sentence (porque eso siempre da mucho morbo) doesn't necessarily translate to get me hard but it does very much translate to gets me horny as well, we know juriji's op status as per ep1 (and that she's a self described perpetually horny bitch) but i think that translation was a little bit questionable

this week's challenge is a rusical (deluxical? supresical? i will see myself out) inspired in la llamada (lit. the call but the official name in english is holy camp!), an actual musical made by the javis that premiered in 2013 as a stage show (as a curiosity, supremme played god in the latest revival a couple of months ago) and that had a movie inspired by it from 2017 that was nominated to 5 goyas (the spanish cinema academy awards).

the movie is in netflix if you want to watch it but the gist of the argument is: two girls that have been going to the same catholic camp every summer since they were girls, directed by two nuns; a well meaning older one that wants to teach the kids at camp about faith with the help of music and an innocent novice that is a fan of the 80s band presuntos implicados with a couple of doubts about faith; the main character, one of the girls, starts to have apparitions of god... that for some reason is singing whitney houston songs, the movie lives and breaths absurdist humor but it's really cute

the guest judge of this week is la prohibida; guys, you don't understand, i have been expecting her to appear in this show since they announced season 1; she was by far the most famous spanish drag queen prior to drag race (arguably still the only one that does frequently have tours both in spain and latam w any sort of regularity even if it's now nichier to know of her and her music than it is to know about the show) and she was the most speculated person to be the host of the show besides supremme (her, supremme and pupi have been working together for a long time, but out of the three of them, she's probably the one that is better known for her singing; pupi and supremme are also singers but pupi is better known for her comedy and supremme for her hosting... out of the 3 of them she was definitely the best known overall however, even by straight people)

sharonne saying la prohibida is god on earth after cher? i concur, if you were gay in spain in the mid 10s, that is a very damn accurate assessment

alright, i think i got most of the fangirling out of my system, moving along the subs for her intro video are a bit off; she said "lo prohibido atrae and la prohibida distrae" (the forbidden attracts and la prohibida distracts); her name is literally 'the forbidden one' (or well... one of them; her character is actually named amapola lópez; amapola as a singer calls herself la prohibida... i promise to you this is actually relevant they mention amapola somewhere after this)

when the javis are explaining the parts there's changes to all of the names from the original holy camp. they make puns with all of the names from the original; la llamada turns into la llamadrag, the name of the camp is la brújula (lit. the compass) and it turns into la brujudrag, the girls' names were maria and susana and are now maricorn (obligatory maricon pun; maricon = fag, marina's character) and susanal (pun with possessive adjective of they and annal so their annal in spanish... and sucking-annal in french, thanks for that one juri, is diamante's character), the novice estrella plays was named milagros (lit. miracles, it is an actual name believe it or not, a little old fashioned but still very much in use; the diminutive is milagritos) and here it's mila (another actual name) + gritos (screams); sor bernarda played by sharonne and the founding mother played by onyx have the same names (the subs write onyx as the mother superior but it's founding mother) and instead of marina and diamante being obsessed with reggaeton and electrolatino they get in trouble for doing drag that is a bit different from the norm; and lastly the muses have the official way the franchise translates charisma uniqueness nerve and talent (which i'm a bit sad doesn't spell anything like it does in english <\3 oh well)

when they're assigning roles and diamante and sethlas both want susanal; i keep seeing them translate guarra as ill mannered and i mean... yes, but guarra is a bit more general than that (and a good deal less polite than saying someone is ill mannered); guarra is usually used for dirty/naughty and applied to people it's basically like calling them pig or slob and when sethlas agrees to take uniqueness in the confessionals she says the javis think sethlas can play the part of uniqueness, not sethlas herself (although ofc she trusts their judgement)

when jota and estrella are fighting for mila gritos... jota doesn't say estrella wants the part to annoy her, she says estrella wants the part no matter what (quiere el papel de milagritos por cojones, cojones=testicles) and when sharonne says 'estrella is a superstar' it's a bit closer to 'estrella is too much of a star' (estrella es mucha estrella; estrella = ⭐)

the joke when they introduce carlos marco, the music producer for this challenge, is that he was a singer in a boyband called auryn (which calvo claims was his own drag group)

venedita singing is the representation i deserve 💀 a round of applause for being self aware enough to recognize when you're a terrible singer lmao showing the judges vulnerability

for today's new euphemism for cock we have: sethlas singing the words bocadillos de chorizo (the subs translate it as sandwich but bocatas are made w baguettes so if anything think of it as a meat sub... i think that's explanatory enough)

when they're choreographing and calvo is giving sharonne and estrella their directions... the subs say that estrella makes sharonne nervious bc milagritos is too innocent... poner de los nervios actually is to get on someone's nerves in this context

onyx talking about going to a catholic school further proves my theory that we all share the same trauma bc i could immediately picture the nun she was playing (the representation i deserve lmao) and when juri was saying being a painting was hard she was laughing bc of the coloquial expression for looking a mess is looking like a painting

what's with the editors and the shade music effect this episode it's everywhere

when they enter the workroom the next day, jota is singing antes muerta que sencilla which is a song by maria isabel (it does mean literally what it says, I'd rather be dead than be basic, it is ofc a gay anthem)

the 'yo me he tomado tres cafés y estoy por tutearte' (I've drunk 3 coffees and I'm about to flirt with you in the subs) of sharonne and venedita; tutear would be to address informally (using tu vs using usted; not flirting unless I'm missing a reference to something there)

they hit me where i live with diamante's story, here's a fun fact for everyone that might be curious: even in caribbean countries where it's ilegal on paper to discriminate you for being gay, it's still very much done in practice both socially and institutionally, and there are quite a few countries that still have gay sex as a punishable crime in their penal code (: the DR does not have homosexuality or crossdressing punishable by law but it most definitely does not have a law to punish harassment or discrimination for being lgbt (: do not touch me (nvm adding racism and food insecurity growing up plus the whole immigration ordeal to that bc i will scream; that mechanism of defense to delete those painful things from your childhood is called trauma response, diamante)

there's been a shitton of references to los javis making calls (llamadas) to people when introducing the panel of judges... I guess this challenge makes it self explanatory lmao but it is also in a few different episodes; when ana says the most exciting call she's gotten from them has been to invite her to a party it is bc they're famous for 1) being the two gay men that are everywhere in spanish LGBT media and 2) for having everyone that is anyone in their parties and said parties being wild

alright for the actual musical:

not to be an absolute fangirl but i love you can tell the judges are usually having the time of their lives watching this cast; even with the questionable singing and diamante corpsing all way through the episode, and jota making the weirdest of faces

'what are you doing with that mustache we're not going to a party of toñi moreno' she's a lesbian tv host (the joke here is that she likes drag kings i guess)

when sharonne wakes up marina and diamante they mention torremolinos: this is a town in the south of spain very much like palm springs for drag? If you're well established (... and of certain age) you start to set camp there, it's a very common holiday destination for lgbt people

'dont pull an inti and don't pull a dovima' (for those of you watching this one that haven't seen S1; inti self eliminated herself and dovima is infamous bc she did not think of any of her looks as things she had to be able to walk in... and for not being particularly good at anything except looking pretty -It's a joke even amongst the cast-)

the black & white is an actual gay club in madrid

kika lorace is another famous drag queen (the guest of snatch game last season)

supremme de luxe in intimísimo: name of an actual show of supremme (and a ref to the fact that she constantly says she does close contact/style cabaret when she performs)

when sharonne tells milagritos to do what she did in the ele ele... the LL is another well known gay club in madrid

ritual torremolinos is a gay hotel (guess where and famous for what)

hasta luego maricarmen (see you later, maricarmen; maricarmen being a coloquial way to say maricon) is a meme bc of belen esteban (a trash tv personality and the unofficial queen of spain, when spaniards get angry online 9 times out of 10 there'll be a belen esteban meme they'll quote)

malú is a singer, and the niece of paco de lucia

when the muses tell marina she's got the potential of a star and marina asks 'bertín osborne?' bertín osborne is a singer and tv host known here from the spanish version of a singing show called stars in their eyes in the 90s

'avon llama' (avon is calling) is the slogan in spanish of the cosmetic company (is it the same in english? probably but I'm not going to look it up so i'll just write it down anyway)

gula gula is a restaurant that offers drag shows (madrid)

ana torroja is a singer; better known for being the lead singer in a band from the 80s called mecano

los presuntos implicados is another band from the 80s, they make jazz/folk/electonic music

the paraíso bath house they refer at the end of the show also exists (madrid)

the continuity error with sharonne's habit having the white collar in the final scene and sometimes not having it bothers me a lot but if anyone has ever deserved a double win it was sharonne and estrella for this challenge

marina was also just so good in this? she just shone so bright in this episode i just 🥰 and i'm obsessed that sethlas is in her platforms and she still just looks roughly around the same height as everyone else (and gorgeous although her accent and estrella's singing in english made me giggle)

okay, runway things:

when juriji is on the runway, ambrossi says loco ibiza lo comía, it's a lyric from an 80s song (literally the name of the song) and prohibida says piazza san marco in italian (she lived in italy for a while and i do know she's got at least one song in italian if not an entire album i believe); "there's too many people in versailles today" is from sofia coppola's marie antoinette (and a real life quote but my mind immediately went to the movie)

onyx comes out in a flower bud but the sub says cocoon? (as a fun fact, capullo, the word for flower bud, is also used to call someone an asshole); mr. kubrick what would you do? said by ambrossi is the name of an album by la prohibida; ana says she's margarita seispechos (six tits) in a reference to margarita seisdedos (six fingers) the mother of a spanish singer named yurena; not a clue what is this thing about a sabrina and cubans tho 1

nothing on venedita; troll-op is the perfect pun for putroll lmao (but i agree with vene; not her best look)

jota: calvo says she's from la manga (from the sleeve; a reference to la mancha... like the place in don quixote and the region of castilla la mancha); ambrossi calls her carmencita polo (carmen polo was the wife of franco and she was infamous for being obsessed with necklaces; polo is also the word of chemise in spanish); when jota is leaving calvo says eres tan travesti (you're such a queen; the name of another prohibida song.... which is actually about someone being a drag, not so much a queen which is a shame is not the translation they chose bc the pun was right there but i digress) and a few things from her confessional are not what it says in the subs (but they do mean roughly the same)

sharonne; supremme says 'oh there's feathers we love it already'; feather=camp/effeminate/very gay; trapped in her space capsule is a reference to another prohibida song (or several she's got a thing with space this is like six songs of hers as far as I'm concerned but terchová particularly if my memory isn't playing tricks on me) i loved this look so much

sethlas did that oh my god; blanca y radiante va la novia is a lyric from a song by antonio prieto; the scream of 'im getting married!' is a reference to la veneno

diamante first comes as a kinder egg (chocolate eggs w toys inside... pretty sure everyone knows them but they were banned in the us bc choking hazard so we're mentioning them); ana saying manda huevos is literally translated in the subs as throwing eggs and it basically means 'i can't believe it/bollocks!'; 'she plays with what comes out of her balls' lo que le sale de los huevos means with whatever she wants,

marina also did that; i think that calvo's commentary when she leaves the runway (rubia y criminal) is a reference for the title of legally blonde in spain (una rubia muy legal; a very lawful/law-abiding blonde)

estrella; ana starts to say gentlemen prefer them [blonde, duh] when estrella is in the gentlemen prefer blondes pink number that has been imitated to death, the second look is from the seven year itch and the last look, i thought the swimming suit was from some like it hot but some like it hot is set in the 1920s so i think it's just a generic 60s black swimming suit (could be wrong)

when estrella talks about seeing calvo in física o química (the tv show the acting challenge of season one is based on); right, i will probably go to gay hell for this but i hated that show with passion because guess who tried to make every college research paper about gay stuff and was deeply disappointed by what passed for gay representation... anyway, my personal opinion aside; física o química (physics or chemistry) was a teen drama serie that ran from 2008 and 2011 and it dealt with literally everything you could think of for the genre (relationships, sex, unwanted pregnancies, racism, homophobia, drugs, alcohol, and relationships with teachers and parents) in a very realistic manner (which includes being unable to give lgbt ppl happy endings because this is still the late 00s and nobody in that show had heard of therapy... unless ofc you mean conversion therapy) it is very beloved by the lgbt community here despite that because it is the first legitimate teen representation a lot of people had so it is a cult series (the challenge last season was not the javis going on an ego project lmao there's legitimate complains about it feeling like they're the only lgbt people that mainstream media allows bc they're in a lot of spanish lgbt content either as actors or directors or producers but they are unequivocally the gay referents for easily two generations now even if it is definitely at least not just them nowadays and they're right... estrella is now a referent for many other people as well)

i do not usually condone violence but i will say that when juriji and onyx were both in the bottom for this challenge? i was ready to throw hands 💖 there's an interview released little ago in which supremme says she had to get up from her seat in one episode to say she did really have no actual reason to send someone home bc they were all really good and she knew she and the other judges were sending people to the bottom for very tiny details (idk which episode it was she didn't say but whichever it is i hope they don't edit it out bc honestly what a mood)

when they're waiting for deliveration and sethlas realizes juri is crying she calls her chimichurri (like the food) and marina says 'por mi coño estoy en el top' the subs translate that for 'by god, i'm in the top this week', that's pretty accurate, she's swearing on her pussy though, just a note in case you were confused by the idiom

when the judges are deliverating, supremme says now that we're alone we can open the hair salon rather than the beauty parlour (bc chop chop ✂️)

when jota is gassing herself up pre lipsyncing in the confessional she says 'me la voy a comer con patatas' (lit. i'll eat her up with potatoes) it means i'll win easily (i'll eat her up/have her for lunch) not give it her all like the subs say

the song they're lipsyncing this week is la prohibida's most famous song by far, it's still played in gay clubs, there was a time i was veritably sick of hearing it everywhere i went even if it does hold certain nostalgic value for me now, my favorites of hers were always ganas de matar and mujer de bien javier calvo getting his fucking life watching them lipsync??? that was me in a prohibida concert in 2016

alright what is it about the wigs this season (and with this one we are 4 for 4 with cadiz queens having wardrobe issues... which further confirms estrella glueing her wig down w super glue might be over kill but she def has a genuine concern there)

i don't think jota being a folklorica is a detriment to her in this challenge nor in general, even if i didn't love the overacting this ep; the runway just sealed it which is a pity bc that was such a good look too it sucks it didn't work

there are literally no words for what spanish cultures owes gitanes (i might dislike the toros and flamenco stereotype but flamenco as an art form would be nothing nothing without the contribution of romani people and it should be acknowledged and celebrated) but beyond that i'll just miss her on the show period; she did announce she'll be releasing a song with la prohibida the same day after the episode went live, i can't wait to see what she does now

Okay I’ll break it up into editions, we had one way back when, and then it came back from the dead in 2017, those are the editions I’ve seen so yeah, I’ll post here like my favourite (musically of course) artists, with their styles, some songs, etc :)

It got a bit long so everything will be under the cut (in total I talked about 11 artists)!

OT 2017

LOLA ÍNDIGO

She makes basically urban stuff, I’m not usually a fan of that style but it’s perfect for dancing and her music videos are amazing, my personal favourites are Ya No Quiero Ná (her first single ever!) Mujer Bruja and Santería ft. Danna Paola and Denise Rosenthal (obsessed about how they show each one’s culture in the mv). She’s actually doing pretty good atm, she’s won a bunch of awards, like the MTV Europe Music Award for Spanish Artist of the Year, and she receives a lot of radio play.

MIRIAM RODRÍGUEZ

She was my favourite during the contest and she’s doing amazing stuff. She’s basically a singer-songwriter with a more rockish sound, and with great songs like Hay Algo En Mí (her first single ever!), No! ft. Pablo López (the live version of this song is unreal), Mejor Sin Miedo (all from her first album), Desperté, No Vuelvas, and Dos Extraños en la Ciudad (from her second album!). She has already released two amazing albums which I love, and she’s been a coach on the Spanish version of The Voice!

AITANA

She’s probably the most mainstream succesful of this new OT gen (and one of the most mainstream succesful Spanish artists right now), but tbh I didn’t really like her first album, I thought it was a bit underwhelming, except for amazing and powerful ballads like Vas A Quedarte, but her second album... HER SECOND ALBUM IS A CULTURAL RESET. It’s very punk infused, but with her own personal touch, and I fucking love it, I hope she stays in this style, and becomes its own thing, cause it’s unbelievable good. Check out 11 Razones and Cuando Te Fuiste ft. Natalia Lacunza (I’ll talk about her later!) to see how’s the vibe, I fucking love it. Also, she collabed in THE MOST ADDICTIVE SONG EVER, like I just play it on repeat at all times. She performed recently in the Goya Awards (the Spanish Film Awards, kinda like our Oscars) and was amazing, and has received numerous awards, she has been nominated TWICE for the Latin Grammy Awards, SHE COLLABED WITH KATY PERRY, and was on Skam España!

AMAIA

Amaia was the winner of OT 2017, and she has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard, she does this indie music that’s just so so pretty. Her first album was incredible, with songs like El Relámpago, Quedará En Nuestra Mente and Quiero Que Vengas (LOVE that music video). She represented Spain in Eurovision along with a fellow contestant, Alfred García, and has sung in the Royal Theater and in the Goya Awards!

OT 2018

MARTA SANGO

One of my faves from the edition (they were all so good I couldn’t pick only one), she does 80s inspired pop music. She has actually only released two songs, but they are SO FREAKING GOOD she has to be on this list, they are Por Ti and Qué Más Quieres De Mí. She’s also acting in the musical La Llamada (in English it’s called “Holy Camp” for some reason) since a couple of years ago now, and lots of people want her to go to Eurovision, so who knows. But like, imagine something like Qué Más Quieres de Mí in Eurovision... The power it would hold...

SABELA

Another of my fave contestants, she’s my Galician queen and she sings indie lyrical songs in Spanish and Galician. Her first album is criminally underrated, and has gems like Despedida (which appeared in Skam España!) and El Paso. She is also very vocal in social issues, specially on mental health and syndroms.

NATALIA LACUNZA

HER. No but really, she’s doing so much interesting stuff right now it’s gonna be hard choosing only one lol. She doesn’t do just one genre, so I’ll let the songs explain by themselves lol. She has put out 2 amazing EPs and she’s doing lots of collabs with small indie groups, they’re all pretty great. About her songs, let’s see, Nana Triste ft. Guitarricadelafuente, her first single, remains my favourite Spanish song ever, and you can also see Tarántula from her first EP, which was also in Skam España. From her second EP I love Olvídate de Mí and A Otro Lado, and some of her newest stuff, with a more trashy aesthetic I’m obsessed with, like Nuestro Nombre, Quiero Dormir Contigo ft. Trashi or Enfance 80 ft Videoclub.

ALBA RECHE

THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. She was also one of my faves of the edition, and she sings really beautiful soft pop, and has one of the most hypnotic and pretty voices I’ve ever heard. She has two albums (the second one has released the day I’m writing this lol), in the first one nearly all the titles have to do with Mythology so imagine how happy I was; and she has also done really great collabs. From her first album I love Caronte and Quimera, from this new one Pido Tregua and La Culpa, and also Que Bailen ft. Cami and La Posada ft. Sebastián Cortés (i wanna go to a club just to dance to this song tbh). She is very vocal on social issues, mostly related to feminism and LGBTQ issues (she performed in Madrid’s Pride), and has been nominated to the LATIN GRAMMYS!!!

OT 2020

ANNE LUKIN

My favourite from the edition! She has a very pure and pretty voice, and sings indie soft songs, although her last couple songs have also had some 80s inspo! All of her songs have been bangers, and they are Salté, Volver a Mí, Lento, El Chino de la Esquina, and Quién Eres. Her first album is actually releasing next month, I can’t wait!!!

CHICA SOBRESALTO

She already had an album pre-OT, and she sings indie-rock. I absolutely love her songs, and she’s like a genuine amazing person, she has it all. Either way, her songs post-OT, all bangers, are Oxitocina, Fusión del Núcleo and Adrenalina ft. Zahara, and this week she announced her first album post-OT, that will release in a couple months!!

ANAJU

This is the last one! She is an aesthetics queen, she is a graphical designer and her presentation is always the best. She sings very lyrical songs that I adore. She has already released a pretty good EP, with songs like Rota, Ese o Ese, and Carbón.

Sorry for making it so long and for hijacking your ask to make a wholeass post, this legit took me all morning lol. Anyways, let me know if you like any of them :)

Film festival at DSU  encourages community to connect with Spanish and Latin American cultures

“The festival will provide a unique opportunity to view contemporary films from Latin America and Spain,” said Dr. Cheri Robinson, assistant professor of Spanish at DSU. “Many of the films deal with pertinent issues for people of all cultures: dreaming of a better life, overcoming adversity and a search for truth and meaning.”

The scheduled dates for the films are:

Wednesday, Feb. 6, 6 p.m. | Spider Thieves/Niñas Araña – Dir. Guillermo Helo, Chile (2016)

Three teenage girls from a Santiago shanty town set in motion a plan to climb buildings and plunder expensive apartments. All they want is to have all the cool and trendy stuff they see advertised in TV commercials and department stores. Word spreads and soon enough they become the notorious “spider thieves.” Watch the film trailer here:  http://bit.ly/2H5qJdn

Monday, Feb. 11, 6 p.m. | On the Roof/El Techo – Dir. Patricia Ramos, Cuba/Nicaragua (2017)

In this feel-good ensemble dramedy, a flat rooftop in an old Havana neighborhood is the natural habitat for three friends who spend their days and nights dreaming about the future. Yasmani is an amateur pigeon fancier who is too shy to talk to a girl he likes; Victor José has convinced himself of his Sicilian descent and now prefers to go by Vito; Anita is five months pregnant and pretends that she doesn’t care who the father is. In the midst of their boredom, without money and dreaming about success, they decide to set up their own business. The cost of this dream will finally lead them to personal maturity, but with some difficulty. Watch the film trailer here: http://bit.ly/2RIHDm6

Tuesday, Feb. 12, 6 p.m. | Birdboy: The Forgotten Children/Birdboy: Los niños olvidados – Dir. Alberto Vázquez & Pedro Rivero, Spain (2016)

There is light and beauty, even in the darkest of worlds. Stranded on an island in a post-apocalyptic world, teenager Dinky and her friends hatch a dangerous plan to escape in the hope of finding a better life. Meanwhile, Dinky’s old friend Birdboy has shut himself off from the world, pursued by the police and haunted by demon tormentors. But unbeknownst to anyone, he contains a secret inside him that could change the world forever. Based on a graphic novel and short film by co-director Alberto Vázquez and winner of the Goya Award for Best Animated Feature, Birdboy: The Forgotten Children is a darkly comic, beautiful, and haunting tale of coming of age in a world gone to ruin. Watch the film trailer here: http://bit.ly/2VKWDPx

Tuesday, Feb. 19, 6 p.m. | The Queen of Spain/La Reina de España – Dir. Fernando Trueba, Spain (2017)

After enjoying a successful career in Hollywood, Spanish actress Macarena Granada (a luminous Penélope Cruz) returns home to play Queen Isabella in an epic period film that has the local media buzzing. Once in Spain, she runs into former friends and colleagues while the film production goes through a roller coaster of emotional scenarios, including the return of a once-famous director, passionate affairs between crew members, and the hovering presence of Franco’s regime. Oscar®-winning director Fernando Trueba, brings together an all-star cast for a lavish homage to 1950s Spanish cinema. A spirited film-within-a-film, The Queen of Spain is an artful rendering of breathtaking costumes, rich visuals and madcap fun, unpredictably melding Hollywood’s studio system with that of fascist-era Spain. Watch the film trailer here: http://bit.ly/2H9Kv7v

Thursday, Feb. 21, 6 p.m. | The Future Perfect/El Future Perfecto – Dir. Nele Wohlatz, Argentina (2016)

Xiaobin is 17 years old and does not speak a single word of Spanish when she arrives in Argentina. But a few days later, she already has a new name, Beatriz, and a job in a Chinese supermarket. Her family lives in a parallel world in a launderette, far removed from the Argentinians. Xiaobin secretly saves money and enrolls at a language school. She tries out in the street what she learns there. After having learned how to “make appointments,” she arranges to meet a supermarket customer, Vijay. He comes from India, and although they can barely communicate with each other, they start a secret romance. And when she practices the conditional, the form of possibility, Xiaobin starts thinking about the future. What would happen if her parents learned about Vijay? The more she masters the Spanish language, the more she interferes in the scenario. Watch the film trailer here:  http://bit.ly/2RI0KN5

All films will be shown in Beck Auditorium located in DSU’s Klinefelter Hall, and there is no cost to attend.

The Spanish Film Club series was made possible with the support of Pragda, SPAIN arts & culture and the Secretary of State for Culture of Spain.
