Synopsis

Australian premiere

 La guitarra flamenca de Yerai Cortés

The 2025 Goya Award winner of Best Documentary Feature Film, The Flamenco Guitar of Yerai Cortés is a fascinating collaborative piece between debut director Anton Álvarez (aka musician C. Tangana) and Yerai Cortés, a rising star in Spain’s flamenco scene.

When Anton Álvarez (aka C. Tangana) met Yerai Cortés at a party, where Cortés played guitar for Montse Cortés under the Starlight satellites, and told Álvarez of his album project, this film was born. Known for his refined, unique style, Cortés’ life is marked by a dark family secret and a sorrow he longs to share with the world. As Álvarez meets Cortés’ family and explores their tumultuous relationships, secrets and joys, the film delves deeper into the heart of his internal conflict.

A unique musical experience featuring some spectacular set pieces of flamenco, this superb documentary about love, passion, forgiveness, family and the artistic process combines the power of flamenco music with the weight of a family secret that must come to light.
