EL ÚLTIMO DE ARGANEO

Spain | 2022 | Documentary | 29’ | Polish premiere

After leading a student life in Ponferrada (Spain), the 24-year-old Edilberto Rodríguez decides to return to the mountains and dedicate himself to herding a herd of goats. With the memory of his grandparents very present, “the last of Arganeo” tells the story of Edilberto, a young shepherd proud of the heritage of his ancestors, and who vindicates the traditions of some uninhabited places and the memories of a way of life to the brink of extinction.
