I Die of Sadness Crying for You

  • slideshow_large

Synopsis

A personal essay film centred on copla - a form of Spanish lyrical song which powerfully communicates emotions of sorrow and the profound sadness of woman.
The film combines filmmaker Nina Danino's interest in the female voice with archive and newly filmed performances. The film sets out to look for copla and the women and singers of copla and on her own memory and experience of it.
Official Selection BFI London Film Festival 2019 - Experimenta Strand - World premiere
