Hablar Filming Locations
Madrid, Spain's central capital, is a city of elegant boulevards and expansive, manicured parks such as the Buen Retiro. It’s renowned for its rich repositories of European art, including the Prado Museum’s works by Goya, Velázquez and other Spanish masters. The heart of old Hapsburg Madrid is the portico-lined Plaza Mayor, and nearby is the baroque Royal Palace and Armory, displaying historic weaponry.
Vibrant, multicultural Lavapiés is spread out over steep medieval streets filled with lively Indian restaurants and old Spanish taverns. Edgy art shows and events take place at the Tabacalera and La Casa Encendida cultural centers, in contrast with the modern masterpieces, like Picasso’s “Guernica," showcased at the Reina Sofía Museum nearby. Vendors at the busy San Fernando Market sell cheese, books and craft beer.
Hablar (2015)
An anthology film with 20 stories on the subject of words and communication, linked to one another over a 400-metre stretch: from Madrid's Lavapiés Square to the Sala Mirador. A journey between theatre and cinema, filmed in a single fixed shot running continuously over 80 minutes and half a kilometer, in Madrid's popular Lavapiés district. The characters talk, argue, laugh, cry, threaten, whisper, shout, steal, make dates, get angry with and hug one another, prompting the spectator to reflect on the immense power of words.
