Synopsis

Set against the vibrant yet turbulent backdrop of 1970s Spain, Cecilia: The Voice of a Generation chronicles the short yet extraordinary life of Evangelina Sobredo Galanes, known to the world as Cecilia. A trailblazing singer-songwriter, Cecilia captured the soul of a nation through her poetic lyrics, bold spirit, and haunting melodies, even as she pushed the boundaries of censorship during the Franco regime. From her privileged childhood spent abroad to her rise as an iconic voice of Spanish folk music, the film delves into her journey of self-discovery, artistic evolution, and defiant pursuit of authenticity. Inspired by Simon & Garfunkel’s Cecilia, she adopts her stage name, transforming it into a beacon of hope and rebellion for a generation yearning for change. The narrative explores the creative genius behind songs like Un ramito de violetas and Mi querida España, juxtaposed against Cecilia's personal struggles with fame, love, and societal expectations. Her fierce independence and refusal to conform ultimately make her a feminist icon, paving the way for future artists in a repressive era.
