Violeta Existe

The familiar reflection of a universal voice

2021 · 75 min · Documentary

This is the journey that Ángel Parra Orrego undertakes on the 100th anniversary of the birth of his grandmother Violeta Parra, proposing to reinterpret the album Las últimas Composiciones, recorded shortly before her death and which would become a fundamental and emblematic piece of popular culture in Latin America. To this end, she turns to her sister Javiera and her father Ángel Parra, and they call together different musicians and singers with whom they live and relate intimately what it means to reinterpret the great Violeta Parra and her work.
