The singer and poet Leonard Cohen will participate in the new project
of producer Juan Lebron, a new series that will join remastered
content 'Sevillanas' and 'Flamenco' by Carlos Saura, who could have
also attended by the actress South African Charlize Theron. With a
budget of 1.5 million, this project will also feature the poet José
Manuel Caballero Bonald, the dancer Sara Baras and singer Miguel
Poveda.
Lebron explains himself to Europa Press, recalling that this year
marks the 20 anniversary of the premiere of 'Sevillanas' Saura, "both
films are going to remaster, later to be retrained in the Bienal de
Flamenco de Sevilla". But he continues, "has long been thinking about
the idea of all the material available a new television format that
was directed more to the international market, those people who do not
know the flamenco", which "needed to give it some educational content,
and also to submit that someone who was well known in the world of
music. "
Thus continues the producer, "turning, we think the best person would
be an international icon, and a love of flamenco, Lorca and Andalusia
as Cohen, who was proposed and accepted it." The poet and musician
from Montreal put the image and voice to text Caballero Bonald, who
will write the contents of the series, which "will be extraordinary
and that flamenco is going to open new channels of communication and
knowledge ". The producer will shortly begin work on the script with
the poet Cadiz.
Although the format is not fully defined yet, Lebron will be a clear
informative format in which Cohen, for example, "appears first in
English explaining why you like flamenco, and then between stick and
stick, just over 30 between 'Sevillanas' and 'Flamenco', will give
short explanations of this art. "In addition, the producer says it is
trying to get the series, which will consist of five episodes of 45
minutes, "was filmed in Spain on October, when Cohen has planned
several activities in our country, and I would love to match during
the days of the Seville Biennial, "and that the product" to be
completed by January 2013. "
But this project does not end here, and Juan Lebron is also scheduled
for the same with the South African actress Charlize Theron, who says,
"dances extraordinarily flamenco". In this regard, explains that
during his childhood in the suburbs of Johannesburg, between six and
twelve years, the artist attended an academy run by a woman from
Granada, then the idea "is to create a certain number of international
learning, in which Poveda sing a Seville and Sara Baras will practice
this teaching with Theron giving a master class. "
Any case, Lebron makes clear that while the agreement with Cohen "is
fully closed, Theron is not yet completely closed."
