MIRALLES

The film Miralles tells, as in a novel, the vision of the world of one of the most important Spanish architects of the contemporary international scene.
Enric Miralles dies at the age of 45 from a brain tumor. The next day he is buried in his masterpiece, the Igualada Cemetery, an unfinished forest-cemetery. From that moment on, his life and his work are inextricably linked.
The film unfolds in variations, following Miralles' own creative method inspired by Giacometti. A search without the possibility of conclusions, as in the extraordinary and complex Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh, one of the architect's last works and also one of his magisterial works.
Moving with freedom through different places and floating in the city of Barcelona, the narrator's voice, written by one of the most interesting Spanish authors of the moment Sara Mesa, talks to a ghost, it searches for him, evokes him in its spaces, asks questions about his architectures, crossing the threshold between death and life.
