Deep Blues/Flamenco Jondo
Two cultures, two struggles, one human condition.

The similarities between Flamenco and the Blues are striking, not so much in the structure of the music but with regard to the people who produced it and still interpret it – the Spanish gypsies and the African-Americans. Both musics were created in the south of their respective countries, and the subject matter is often identical. Flamenco and the Blues sprang from suffering and discrimination, from the people. When trying to define “the real thing” in both musics, the words used are “deep” and “jondo” – which have the same meaning. What stands out when examining the cultures, looking at the images and hearing the sounds, is a shared human condition. It is this human condition that will be treated with love and respect in a documentary format that will capture the sight and sounds of two historical art forms.
