Synopsis

“If Latin America could talk, it would do it through Mercedes Sosa’s voice.” In this sentence, we can summarize the significance of Mercedes Sosa for our continent and for the world. Cantora, an Intimate Journey has the purpose of reflecting an artist’s inner self, the creative moment, that thing we can’t see when we listen to music but we can feel. For more than a year, the film captures the meetings of Mercedes with famous artists from Latin America and Spain, including Joan Manuel Serrat, Caetano Veloso, Shakira, Charly García, and Jorge Drexler, among others. These great artists share with Mercedes the recording of the album Cantora.
