Season 1 • Episode 3
LatestA three-part documentary that tells the story of one of the most emblematic groups of the nineties and of a time that marked the history of Spain. It is a unique story that goes beyond the famous fans of the group, it is also a story about success, betrayal, jealousy, anarchy, homophobia, and oblivion. Directed by Jorge Laplace, ‘Locomía’ features the participation of the original members of the group that revolutionized the Spanish music scene, such as its founder, Xavier Font, and the music producer who put them on stage, José Luis Gil.
Production
Incredible archival footage of peak Locomía absurdity.
Direction
Laplace lets the members contradict each other beautifully.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Locomía's fan-headpieces became unintentional symbols of Spain's post-Franco cultural explosion — kitsch as liberation.
Director Jorge Laplace initially planned a feature film, but Xavier Font's death in 2020 forced a pivot to memorial documentary.
