Imperfect

Imperfect is a documentary project started in 2019 and finished in 2020 about the closure of three coal power plants in the North of Spain. 
The closure of mines in northern Spain started in the 1970s. It has been taking place slowly along time, this possibly being the last chapter. Hence the title, Imperfect, which evoques a sequential occurrence along time.
I found much more devastation than expected. There are areas where abandonment, decay and depopulation are terrible.
There is though a glimpse of hope, because recovery has, or is happening in some places. A last chapter was shot in Brañuelas, a village in Leon where a concerted entrepreneurial effort by locals is, so far, bringing a comeback.
