Spain2022documentary80'Fokus na Hiszpanię (2023)

The eponymous protagonist of the documentary, who became a guru of a music genre called rock urbano, is a singer, bass player and the founder of the Barricada band. The director depicted Navarre, the home of the legendary band, through the prism of cultural and political clashes: skirmishes with the police, musical rebellion and the band’s involvement in social problems of the times of the painful exit from dictatorship. The musician presents the stories of individual members of Barricada against the background of the turbulent 1970s and 1980s. After ‘Héroes. Silence and Rock and Roll’, ‘El Drogas’ is another music document on the history of icons of Spanish popular music.
