Red Moon Tide

In a coastal town in Galicia, Rubio, a fisherman and diver who had rescued many people disappears into the waters of the sea. Perhaps due to a sea monster making an ominous sound. The disappearance plunges the people into a static state, of paralysis. The settlers request the help of three meigas (Galician witches) to get out of the spell and recover the Rubio.

Lois Patiño's film is unclassifiable. A succession of images of incredible pictorial beauty, with voice-overs from different settlers and their hypotheses about the state of things, in a slow but hypnotic story that rescues ancient popular myths of Galicia.
