Rubén H. Bermúdez. Everyone likes bananas. 2021 (60 min.)
"Suddenly he woke up, and Black Lives Matter was also Spanish. The photographer Rubén H. Bermúdez, whose 2017 book ‘And why are you black?’ was a turning point for the visibility of Spain’s Afro-descendant community, now presents the audio-visual evolution of his work. A choral, warm and mature feature film, in which he entrusts the camera to seven black people in Spain for them to attempt to make a film. Self-representation and doubts come together to create an intimate, fragmentary and necessarily partial portrait. Skins and bodies, filmed intimately, that speak, that listen to each other, that are exposed. A film that makes you want to live". Gonzalo de Pedro
