<\/p>\n

La Bola Negra is a bold tapestry spanning nearly a century of Spanish history. The film tells the story of three generations of men whose lives are intimately connected through desire, pain, and love<\/p>\n

in this celebrated film from Cannes-winning directors Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Notes Ra\u00fcl Refree: \u201cFrom the beginning, the music and the film grew together. Los Javis asked me to start composing while they were still finishing the script, so the score was already part of the film before many of the images existed. I built the orchestral language around the characters rather than the different periods, and as their stories come closer, those colors begin to mix. I wanted the music to be emotional without simply telling the audience what to feel \u2014 timeless and orchestral, but also experimental when the film needed it. The whole process remained a dialogue between music, shooting and editing, right through to the final score.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Adds Guitarricadelafuente: “I wanted ‘La nieve’ to come from the same emotional place as the characters in the film,” shares Alvaro Lafuente Calvo aka Guitarricadelafuente. “I was inspired by Federico Garc\u00eda Lorca’s last letter and also by my character, Sebasti\u00e1n. I thought about all of his unspoken feelings, and I had to live in that as an actor first to be inspired to write the song.”<\/p>\n

    ABOUT GUITARRICADELAFUENTE<\/p>\n

    Multi-platinum recording artist and Latin GRAMMY nominee Guitarricadelafuente (@guitarricadelafuente) makes his acting debut in the film in a role written and tailored specifically for him by Calvo and Ambrossi<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    2026 has been a banner year for Guitarricadelafuente. NPR published his “Tiny Desk Concert” in January, saying that his “melodies are seismic. Etched together with electronic beats, ethereal guitar, symphonic accents and sometimes zanfona.” In February, Guitarrica launched his first U.S. tour with sold out dates across the country. From there, he performed at major Latin America festivals such as Lollapalooza Argentina and Tecate Pa’l Norte as well as European festivals such as Primavera Sound and Montreux Jazz.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    With his recent album ‘Spanish Leather,’ Guitarricadelafuente not only solidifies the style that established him as one of the most compelling voices of his generation\u2014it pushes it forward. While rooted in the raw, earthy textures of Spanish and Latin American folk that shaped his debut, Guitarrica evolves further on his sophomore album ‘Spanish Leather’ with a more expansive sound. On the album, he worked with a diverse group of producers including Carter Lang (SZA, Justin Bieber), Jasper Harris (Jack Harlow, Camila Cabello), pablopablo (C. Tangana, Nathy Peluso) and Rodaidh McDonald (The XX, Adele). ‘Spanish Leather’ creates a push-and-pull between the familiar and the unknown that gives the album its distinctive edge: timeless yet unmistakably original.<\/p>\n
