The cinematic project, released in cinemas, led the artist to acquire the manuscript Gacela de la raíz amarga, part of Lorca's work Diván del Tamarit. On the reverse side of this document, an unpublished poem by the writer, dated 1933 and titled Canta el reloj, has been found.
“"Any discovery of Federico is gold and a treasure that belongs to us, and it is poetic justice that it be visible because his body's whereabouts are unknown and his voice is unheard. So whenever something of his appears, it seems magical to me because he has been silenced for many years."
The documentary not only explores Lorca's figure through the places he frequented but also highlights his social commitment. The singer emphasizes the poet's vision of a more cultured and European Spain, and his empathy for the disadvantaged, linking his own identity with the fight for justice and equality.
The film traces Lorca's impact in cities like New York, Havana, and Buenos Aires, where his figure is revered on par with cultural icons. In these places, the poet left an indelible mark, experiencing triumph and public fervor, and leaving his spirit in emblematic sites such as the Hotel Castilar or the Café Tortoni.
The artist confesses a "blessed obsession" with reconstructing the author's steps, tracing old photographs to identify corners the poet inhabited. Furthermore, the singer believes that Granada has "pending tasks" regarding Lorca's legacy, suggesting the creation of a cultural map to guide visitors through the significant places of his life. As a culmination of his commitment, the singer is promoting the installation of a sculpture of Lorca in Granada's central Plaza de las Batallas.
