Sagrada: The Mystery of Creation, 2012 | Dir. Stefan Haupt, Switzerland, 90 min., Catalan, German, French, Spanish, English; Hebrew subtitles
Introduction: Galit Landau-Epstein, Associate Curator of Contemporary Art
The Sagrada Família in Barcelona is a unique and fascinating building project by a brilliant, and formerly controversial, genius, Antoni Gaudí. Involving an army of workers and with a history full of many highs and lows, it raises a myriad of questions. The story of the edifice—which has been under construction since 1882 and is about half complete today—is the starting point for Stefan Haupt’s film.
In collaboration with the EPOS Festival.
