FARRUQUITO: A FLAMENCO DYNASTY
NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE For years, the great dancer Farruquito and his family—grandfather, uncle, mother, brothers, and children—have elevated the art of flamenco with staggering operatic passion. Santi Aguado and Reuben Atlas engagingly portray the arc of blood ties, loves, and tragedies that have shaped decades of international triumphs—including a special affinity for NYC, where Farruquito made his professional debut at the age of 6. Welcome home, Farruquito! – Jaie Laplante
The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with co-directors / executive producers Santi Aguado and Reuben Atlas, protagonist Farruquito, and executive producer Ami Minars.
All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
