The documentary To the Rhythm of the New Regueifa (2025), directed by Manolo Maseda and Saúl Rivas and produced by Undodez, continues its journey through cinemas, festivals and cultural programmes with a new stop in Ourense. The film will be screened tomorrow at 8:30 pm at Café Cultural Auriense as part of the 10th Primavera Musical, organised by Cineclube Padre Feijoo. Admission is free.
Cineclube Padre Feijoo is one of the city’s longest-standing cultural institutions. Over more than five decades, it has established itself as a space for cultural debate and an independent platform for auteur cinema, original-language films and audiovisual works outside the commercial circuit.
Primavera Musical, its flagship annual programme, is entirely devoted to music documentaries. Each edition explores different forms of sonic creation, ranging from historical scenes and underground movements to musical traditions and contemporary proposals. In its tenth edition, the programme maintains this exploratory and decentralised spirit, with screenings taking place both at its regular venue and across cafés and cultural meeting spaces throughout the city. The screening of To the Rhythm of the New Regueifa will bring this year’s edition to a close.
In this context, the documentary fits naturally within a programme that understands music and oral creation as part of the same cultural territory. To the Rhythm of the New Regueifa offers a journey through the present-day landscape of Galician oral improvisation, following the voices of regueifa performers who are keeping this tradition alive while transforming it for new generations. The film builds a collective narrative in which generations, territories and forms of transmission coexist, highlighting regueifa as a living and evolving cultural practice.
Following its premiere at Culturgal last November and screenings at various cultural venues across Galicia, the documentary continues its journey in a particularly meaningful setting, closing a programme dedicated to the relationship between music, memory and contemporary creation.
