Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

The last documentary is based on interviews: more than a dozen interviews with the citizens who promoted radio in Euskera, the first broadcasters of the radio, those who passed after, the Basque technician of the time, listeners and collaborators.

Members of broadcaster Esan Erran have pointed out that the documentary deals with "the obstacles they had, related to the linguistic policy of the time. But we've also collected the illusion, the neighborhood work and the community's strength to move the project forward. And the contribution of radio in Basque to this rural region". But after 25 years, what? That's the question that has been put to the listeners.

Di Erran

In 1998, Esan Erran was created, the small radio that a group of citizens would broadcast in Basque. The region of Esan Erran consists of seven municipalities: Imotz, Basaburua, Ultzama, Atetz, Odieta, Anue and Lantz. Although the situation of the Basque country is uneven throughout the region, Esan Erran has been working for years on the Euskaldunization of the linguistic landscape.

In 2012, the Government of Navarra cut off subsidies, the only radio worker went to unemployment and considered it an attempt to silence the radio. Subsequently, a group of young people kept the emission performing weekly sessions. In 2013, without financial aid but with enthusiasm, emission tests began to be broadcast 24 hours and seven days a week by the end of the year.

Documentary projections

As it deals with these issues, it will be possible to reflect and dialogue on the journey in the documentary screenings they have organized during the month of May:

The premiere will take place on May 3 at the Sale of Larraintzar at 19:00.

The documentary will be available on May 17 in Aizarotz, Basaburua, at 19:00 in the Luzia Goñi House of Culture.

Imotz, Eraso, will be broadcast on May 26 in the Zapa cottage at 18:30.
