Alfonso Zarauza (Santiago de Compostela, 1973) is celebrating thirty years of filmmaking — from Compostela to the world.

The exhibition “Nunca deixará de chover no meu cinema” (“It Will Never Stop Raining in My Cinema”) traces these decades devoted to a craft that has earned him recognition as one of the most important voices in contemporary Galician cinema.

Held across various spaces in Zona C, the exhibit presents a curated selection of materials by the filmmaker himself, offering insight into the creative and technical processes behind his work: posters, scripts, documents, behind-the-scenes photos, and portraits of actors — many of whom now have extensive careers — alongside other related materials. A rich experience for anyone interested in exploring his cinematic universe.

It is also a reflection on the city itself — on Compostela, where he lives and where many of his projects are rooted; the city that is both a departure point and a place of return, and where, still a young man, he shot his first short film, “Hay que joderse” (1995). This amateur and naïve piece marked the beginning of his prolific career.
