Martirio

Amaranta Cano, daughter of Carlos Cano, reconstructs, in a journey connecting Andalusia with Portugal, the events that took place on the eve of Three Kings Day in 1985: a murder, a mysterious woman, and a setting marked by the border culture between Ayamonte and Vila-Real de Santo António, with smuggling as a backdrop. The documentary not only delves into the historical and social context of the song, but also pays tribute to Portuguese fado, a musical genre that deeply fascinated Carlos Cano, as well as its most emblematic author, Amália Rodrigues. Throughout the narrative, Amaranta talks to key witnesses of the event and prominent artists such as Teresa Salgueiro, Antonio Chainho, Rozalén, Raúl Rodríguez, and Martirio, who perform their own versions of the legendary song.

Inspired by an exclusive interview and performance footage of Chavela Vargas shot in 1991 and guided by her unique voice, the film weaves an arresting portrait of a woman who dared to dress, speak, sing, and dream her unique life into being.

Chavela Vargas and Federico García Lorca are the main characters of this story. Poetry and music are the places of their meetings. Chavela explains when he lived in the same room where Federico García Lorca lived decades ago, was visited by a bird that contained the soul of the Spanish poet. In her last year of life, Chavela fulfills her last wish: to make a tribute to Spanish poet and finally meet him in the ranks of death. The Nightingale and the Night is a documentary that chronicles the transition from Chavela life to death, her union with Federico, dissolving the borders between reality and dreams.
