FARRUQUITO - A FLAMENCO DYNASTY
Director: Santi Aguado
Farruquito is celebrated as the finest flamenco dancer of his generation. At only 20 he was captivating audiences around the globe with his talent, yet the shadows of his family’s history loomed large. This dazzling documentary chronicles Farruquito’s journey through triumph and tragedy, focusing on an accident that leads to the death of a pedestrian and lands him in prison. As he navigates the complexities of redemption, the story delves into the lives of his family — his grandfather Farruco, a flamenco innovator whose influence shaped the art form, and his son El Moreno, who aspires to follow in their footsteps.
KOKUHO
Director: Lee Sang-Il
A box-office hit in Japan, Kokuho is Lee Sang-il’s long-gestating passion project, born from a 15-year fascination with kabuki and the tradition of onnagata: male actors who play female roles on stage. Adapted from a novel by Shūichi Yoshida, the story begins in 1964 Nagasaki and unfolds over five decades, tracing the bond between Kikuo — taken in by a kabuki master after his father’s death — and the master’s son, Shunsuke. Part brotherhood, part rivalry, their connection fuels a sweeping saga of ambition, sacrifice and devotion within a revered theatrical lineage. Starring Ryo Yoshizawa and Ryusei Yokohama, Kokuho is visually sumptuous and emotionally resonant — a powerful meditation on legacy, identity and the high cost of artistic greatness.
