On November 30, 2022, the preview of the short “Os Vestixios do Reino Medieval de Galicia na Catedral de Santiago de Compostela” took place in the NUMAX Room. The preview was attended by the screenwriter and director Rosa Taboada, the actress Melania Cruz and the Researcher and Professor of Art at the Faculty of Arts of the U.S.C. Rocío Sánchez Ameijeiras.
As in Werner Herzog’s famous documentary “The Cave of Forgotten Dreams”, the short film aims to describe in the first person the inner sensations experienced when entering the Cathedral spaces for the first time at night (the central nave, the Crypt, the Royal Pantheon and the Portico of Glory), trying to find the vestiges of the ancient Kingdom and, above all, in the discovery and promotion of the female figures existing in the temple: virgins, prophetesses, queens, adulteresses and even mythological beings in the form of mermaids come to life in the light of the explanations given by researcher and professor Rocío Sánchez Ameijeiras.
