“Camarón, un mitoâ€, directed by Jaime Chavarri, was awarded 3 Goya Prizes in 2005.
It is a journey through the life and work of José Monge Cruz, better known as "Camarón de la Isla". The film is a tribute to this great flamenco singer, who created a whole new way to view the art of flamenco, which had a huge influence on the new generations and broke social and artistic borders. His desires, successes and struggles are the ingredients to his own personal evolution and are reflected in his particular way of creating music. Camarón taught the world a new way to appreciate flamenco.
