África 815

África 815 Diseño: Cristina Ultreia

Pilar Monsell's archival and experimental work at the helm of her production company, Proxémica, has placed this filmmaker at the forefront of creative documentary. Africa 815, her first feature film, was recognized by countless nominations and awards.

With this documentary film, the author shows great courage in rewriting, from her own point of view, the complex history of her father.

Synopsis: Through the photographs and diaries of her father, Manuel Monsell, during his military service in the Spanish colony of the Sahara in 1964, the author contrasts the myths of romantic love and the ideal family with the true desires and the need to find oneself.
