SYNOPSIS Lagartija Nick transports us in this documentary to a surreal and innovative place, taking us on a tour of his conceptual albums inspired by the historical avant-garde of the 20th century. Through 16mm films, poetry and, of course, the most rocking and innovative music of recent years, Generación Lagartija will introduce us not only to its members, but also to beloved figures such as García Lorca, Val del Omar or Luis Buñuel.
