ASOLAGADOS is a documentary about the people and villages of Abideira, Porto, Castro Candaz, Santa Marta, Pincelo, Ponte Fortes, A Samugueira, San Paio, Mourulle, Portomeñe, A Hermida, Ribó, among others, which were flooded out by the Belesar reservoir in 1963. We hear the sounds of the Ribeira Sacra and Miño rivers; we see the remains of houses, ovens, wine cellars, trees. But most importantly we are presented with the testimonies of 10 people that lived in these villages before the man-made flood.
