Les nouveaux alchimistes

“Beneath the scorching sun of Granada, in Andalusia, two figures cross paths: Chorrojumo, a ghostly presence wandering the city for two centuries, and Anas, a young Moroccan searching for his Morisco roots. Together they roam among the remnants of a city in transformation, where layers of the past give way to a standardized present. Infused with folklore, mythology, and images of spectral beauty, Lucía Selva’s debut feature unfolds as a visual poem—an incantatory elegy that questions the memory of place and how it shapes collective identity. Hovering between fiction and documentary, Who Witnessed the Temples Fall becomes a sublime farewell letter to Granada and the imagination it carries. Where fragility meets poetry.”
