Edgar Estigarribia, The Poet of Guarán

2006-11-03 es 92m
Documentary
Against a colorful and psychedelic rural scenario in Argentine Mesopotamia, this film depicts the life and works of poet and reciter Edgar Estigarribia (1923-1989). A compulsive, self-taught creator, the "Poet of Guaran" recorded more than 200 glosses within some of the most popular Chamame albums. Due to his talent and charisma, the gloss (a musical theme's introductory poem) was definitely incorporated to Tarragosian Chamame, one of the richest, most danceable and joyful rhythms of Argentine folklore.
