About This Movie

Joaquim Jordà i... is a fascinating peek into the mind of a filmmaker who's deeply integrated into the Barcelona School of cinema. The structure is relaxed, mostly revolving around interviews, which gives it this almost intimate vibe. You get to see Jordà riffing off José Luis Guerín and others, sharing his thoughts on the evolution of documentary filmmaking. The pacing is conversational, never feels rushed—just a genuine exchange of ideas. It's interesting how they delve into the nuances of documentary versus traditional cinema. There’s no flashy effects or dramatization here, just raw, honest dialogue that makes you think about the role of a filmmaker in society.
