Afternoons of Solitude

FromAlbert Serra

WithAndrés Roca Rey

Year2024

Duration125min.

LanguageSpanish

PREMIERE on April 17 in the presence of Albert Serra

The matador Andrés Roca Rey is considered a star among bullfighters. Accompanied by his toreros, the 28-year-old Peruvian travels from one Spanish arena to the next. But the bloody business requires the utmost concentration: from dressing in the hotel room, to the traditional movements in front of the irritated animal, to the final death blow.

Albert Serra documents the controversial spectacle with sober, haunting images. And so the matador's lonely hours and his prancing choreography in his embroidered costume seem as alienating as the entire spectacle. And the bull's final seconds seem like an eternity. (Viennale 2024, Michael Pekler)

A fascinating story, a personal work, and, above all, an unquestionable work of art.
