Verkami Breathe

From LaBarrancoFilms we have decided to launch a campaign of Verkami given the extraordinary situation we currently live in Covid-19, where culture has been paralyzed and aid as well, where there is no perspective or we do not know when normalcy will be restored . As the director of the documentary Breathe, I want to end the project I started in 2018 because of my commitment to these imprisoned women and their life stories. Given the many times the state of provisionality and the double confinement in which they live, the wait to carry out this project can cause group cohesion and motivation to be lost, and, finally, …

Breathe, the new documentary project

In October 2019, the filming of the documentary Breathe began, the new audiovisual project by LaBarrancoFilms about the inmates of the Brians 1 prison in Sant Esteve Sesrovires. After having worked with young people who have been in juvenile centers in the documentary Fallen from the nest, the idea arose to work with women who are in penitentiary centers with long sentences, in which the lack of freedom places real weight on their lives. Breathe aims to give a voice to imprisoned women through the creation of a cultural project and to reflect on the current prison system.
