DIRECTOR: Ciprian Iacob
COUNTRY: Romenia
RUNTIME: '3
SYNOPSIS: The song speaks about two lovers who shared something strong, the intoxicating energy between the two, the hardship of moving on, and what happens when one of them suddenly returns. The familiar smell, the sound of his voice, even the touch of a finger triggers their story back to life and reminds of "The Reason" why it was so hard to end it in the first place.

IN THE PINES • 2020
DIRECTOR: Javier Fernández-Caldas Rodríguez
COUNTRY: Spain
RUNTIME: '3
SYNOPSIS: "In The Pines" is a classic of African-American music, made popular by African-American singer Leadbelly during the 1940s. More than 20 versions of this classic have been made, also known as "Were did you sleep last night", by groups such as Nirvana, Greatful Dead, Mark Lanegan, Bob Dylan, Bill Monroe, etc.
A dark and melancholic theme that narrates a crime of a railroad man, of which only his head appears next to a wheel.
Inspired by this verse, we have built the story around that mystery, in the key of black comedy. Its interpreter, Solomon (recently founded Canarian folk and blues group), gives us a new vision of the Leadbelly classic.
