A Toast to St Martiria

A Toast to St Martirià is an improvised speech given by the cult Catalan filmmaker Albert Serra at the St Martirià fiesta in Banyoles, the town of his birth. Transmitting his subversive attitude and impulsive lust for life, it is a journey through his formative years and early relationships - established in the nightlife of his hometown - that have shaped his particular conception of cinema, art and life. 'Cinema should be this, making perception of time and space more intense.'
