Los caballos mueren al amanecer

Ione Atenea, director of Los caballos mueren al amanecer, moved into a house and discovered an unfathomable inheritance, that of the siblings Rosita, Antonio and Juanito García. Their intertwined lives left behind the imprint of a unique, forgotten artistic practice, but the home itself also shows how this in great part involved a refuge of fantasy from a crude, grey reality. How, from the present, should we reinterpret all this fertile material? Bridging the gap between the first person of her discovery and the legacy of these unique beings, Atenea speaks of film as an exercise in activating personal memory, but also the collective memory of the entire country.
