Just a reminder that "Flamenco" originated from the Romani immigrants that arrived in Spain. They were prosecuted because of their culture, but now Spaniards claim it as their own and TO THIS DAY discriminate against Romani people. Remember to be kind to Romani people and thank them for such beautiful culture.
This movie is played in the Caves Museum in the Sacromonte district of Granada. According to the museum, it was filmed in one of those caves, where the Romani people lived, on the outskirts of Spanish society, and developed this art form.
In Hungary Slovakia Romania Bulgaria in some villages they still live like this same conditions 😢 .. for some gypsies time has stoped ! .. but man dance and music joy lives inside of their souls ! … god bless all of our gypsy tribes around the world 🙏 ❤.. very strong people 🙏
The Same in Spain. Spain is very poor so no surprise they get the worst treatment! Look at Spanish colonies of the Americas us natives and Africans where slaves to the Spaniards!
Ole'!!! Ole'!!! The Boy Dancing~ Is one of the greatest dancers, I've ever seen. Two Black Brazilian boys dancing in the street in Curuzu, Salvadore de Bahia Brazil, in the middle of the night, as Ile' Aiye' Dancers, Singers & the Bateria drummed with military precision with the heart beat of Africa, from where they were enslaved & taken to Bahia, Brazil & other far off destinations, into the most vicious and heartless creature ever to exist on Earth~ Man!!! The boys danced in a style seen in the Condomble' Religion, they Danced with the spirit of the Orixas in them, movement of a supernatural higher force within them. The vehicle for the Gods to express themselves from a place both far and near. The extraordinary power to move in a such an esoteric and symbolic way, as this young man demonstrates exquisitely, is phenomenal and as all things from the spirit world, language and meaning, in my experience, always are communicated having not one meaning but multiple ways to interpret the devine meaning. In the dance by this young man, driven with such astounding passion, in a the form true to how the spirit world speaks, his dance can fit perfectly into many Genres of Music, fast to slow, the movements make a statement, facial expression that define intent. The sweeping of the foot, the fingers intertwine in a symbolism that is deep. The gallop of a horse the way the body travels in space, the hands over the head, resembling a flower growing, all done with bravado and motivated at this moment with everything riding on it with conviction that defies a mere rehearsal. Something is speaking to us. Who is the audience besides the few family members that are watching??? It is us the voyeur that this performance is to contemplate it's symbolism and power that is expressed of a higher power that we are blessed to witness. My respect and empathy to all that have suffered by the hateful heart of man, that we all suffer. Our destiny was to love life and to live it with passion so that we could grow, that is the message, so exquisitely expressed in dance by this young man, that bring tears to my eyes and pain in my heart to see a true masterpiece of dance. To the young man a lifetime ago, I hope that you are here with us still and if not, your Dancing in that place both near and far. Thank you for speaking to us in such a form. To Culture, to Life and Love for Eternity. Sincerely, Randy Chavez
Love. I grew up in America and I am all European a mishmash. I recently found out that I had a surprise and then I am Spanish and Portuguese. Along with everything else Italian Norwegian Irish Greek and the list goes on. I always danced like this.. I have videos My mother took of me when I was little and I always dance like flamenco. I still did it sometimes not too long ago and my friends would always say I did well just playing around of course. It is in my heart it is in my soul💃❤️🤍💙🇺🇸 Hi recently have been practicing and bought some beautiful sky flamingo skirts and hats and I feel very well. It is my happiness.
Such passion, where is he now. They tought children from toddler age , look at them dancing. absolutely amazing. wonderful people. All you see these days in children is how to club dance which is not tradition or heritage.
@@BarbieQueen1990 yeah most common genetic make up of gypsies is indian and greek but some have alot of north african, Middle eastern and persian. Then whatever countries in europe there closest family come so of ur gypsy from russia u gonna have some russian in for example.
No they dont gypsies are not rajasthan people. Gypsies are a mixture of all kind of ethnicity and ONE of them being rajasthan. Gypsies can look scandinavian, slavic, southern european, indian, arab and even a bit african. Gypsies have a complete uniqe culture a mix of all the countries theyve past thru.
They originally came from India but settled in different countries, mixed with other races and adopted their culture, some look Asian and some who have intermarried with Europeans look European. The Bulgarian gypsies I met look more Indian or Middle Eastern Their DNA shows that they are of South Asian origin, which is Indian. Unlike the present day Indians who have emigrated abroad and are professionals eg in the medical line and computer specialists, the gypsies preferred the nomadic lifestyle or were not integrated into the community they lived in and therefore did not do well.
@@WalldenAdam yes this so true .. Iam a Roma my self and your so right in the beginning we were all Indian tribes living in India .. than in the 5th century we were taken out of India into Persia all gypsy tribes with other Hindu tribes .. than my doma tribes stayed in Persia others went to Morocco the other half to Egypt and than living there since the 5th century a small minorities stayed there in Persia Egypt and Morocco .. the ones who went to Spain were the kale they mixed with a Morocco tribes and created flamenco the others went to Eastern Europe now called Roma not doma .. so by the time they went to Europe they were mixed with different Arabic tribes .. than in Europe what ever country we went mix with the locals .. I born in Hungary and I had Hungarians in my family man woman from both sides father mother side ..
Mahalo I saw the most beautiful black and white movie, I think in the 60s . Single male dancer in Seville dancing between streams of water from street cleaners hoses. Could this be the movie. Any Information, much appreciated. Alynne
The great dancer, Antonio Gades in Los Tarantos (1963) with the legendary Carmen Amaya. The setting was Barcelona, not Sevilla. A beautiful, harsh film.
It's a Swedish documentary from the late 50's early 60's aprox. The voice explaining things, is speaking Swedish. Would have been good if the whole film was put out here, or know the title, so I could find it somewhere. Flamenco in those days was much purer and more spontaneous..before the big tourism development, which led flamenco to becoming more commercialized as "show bizz". But..having said that, it also allowed for and encouraged more professionalism and flamenco's development to a true, stylized art form, also !
They are not gypsies. they had to flee the catholic church courts qt the time. they were left with no money and no hope. Ran to the mountains and lived like hopeless farmers and this is what they did to express their sadness.
Utter nonsense. They are gypsies from Granada. They have danced like this for many generations and continue to do so in the Sacramonte and Albaicin areas of Granada.
You have a very confused idea of history here, friend. But I can assure you that these are gupsy children from Sacromonte who were filmed as one of the segments of the excellent Rito y Geografia series made in the 70s for spanish TV .

preach!
Alright now. 👏🏼💕
Lol I'm Spanish ..no ..no we don't claim it . We claim it developed in Spain as a consequence of the Romani being in Spain. You deny it? Smh

I once saw someone describe the dance as a pure expression of pain, a defiance of the standards and life itself.
You ain't just whistling Dixie.
Absolutely exhilarating!! Flamenco today seems too polished in comparison.
OMG!! Chills!! This boy is a great flamenco dancer!!!
This are gypsies.. recognize my ppl 🙏💪
Ole'!!! Ole'!!!

Flamenco is and always will be Romani . Don't forget that and don't erase the Spanish Romani.

from the soul!
so original and full of soul
Magnificent!
These children were dancing as if they hadn't been never growing. However today these children are someone's fathers or mothers.
It's more than 60 years since this was filmed. These adolescents would be great-grandparents now!
Thanks for posting!
Me gusta esta!

Who was he?
I would love to know who the boy is too. Phenomenal!
what's the name of the movie?
"Rito y geografia", I suppose
It's a Swedish documentary from the late 50's early 60's aprox. The voice explaining things, is speaking Swedish.
