The documentary "The Holidays of Modern Pilgrims" aims to unveil the roots of tourism

  • The documentary Holidays of Modern Pilgrims addresses the issue of world tourism.

On May 12, Oñati’s gaztetxe will host the first performance of the series.

30 April 2021 - 11:49

The documentary Holidays of Modern Pilgrims analyzes the topic of tourism worldwide, through its historical, economic, social and ideological margins. It wants to "put aside the most common phenomena (gentrification, massification…)" that are heard around tourism and address the issue in a deeper way.

Since the documentary is centered on Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia), the stories recorded there are the central axis of the audiovisual. On the pretext of the "leisure of international hikers", he intends to put on the table a critical analysis of two social formations that are so disparate worldwide: capitalism and regimes that have been self-appointed with the label "socialist state" or marked with the adjective "communism".

The documentary consists of seven chapters in which "few get rid of criticism, those who hate tourism and feel like travelers or ecologists who believe in sustainable tourism," says Uribesalgo. It says that the audiovisual is technically simple and that it is far from being a commodity entretenida.Una voice-over leads the documentary. On 12 May in the gaztetxe of Oñati at 19:00 and on 18 and 19 May in the house of culture of Oñati at 19:00 hours.
