- Synopsis
- Our protagonist is an unlikely hero: gypsy, illiterate, born into poverty and lacking training, but precisely
  therefore, the goblin incarnated in a natural and genuine way. His style, paradigm of black sounds, represents the sublimation of the
  flamenco singing.
  Terremoto de Jerez was in the right place at the right time, to the point that his biography is mixed and confused
  with the history of flamenco itself. However, his untimely death deprived him of universal recognition. 38 years later, we are facing the last opportunity to tell his life first-hand, collecting the testimonies of those who accompanied him in his triumph and his death. This allows us to spread his story in the most natural way possible, such a brutal and moving story.
  Like the genie's own voice.
