Screening of “Rock Bottom” (María Trénor, 2024).
87 minutes. Animation. Spanish

Directed by María Trenor
Produced by Jaibo Films, Alba Sotorra

Inspired in the music and life of Rober Wyatt, “Rock Bottom” is a story or autodestructive love between Bob and Alif, a young couple of artists inmerse in the creative and ground-breaking turmoil of the hippie culture at the beginning of the 70’s. Drugs will make a passionate summer become a nightmare, tackling in the way the topics of music, artistical creation, irresponsible fascination for drugs, the fall-through of the routine and the physical and mental degradation.

In 2024 it will be the 50th anniversary of the Rock Bottom album launchment, and that is why the film will become a key part for the recognition that thousands of fans will give to the artist the next year.
