Jaione Camborda’s first feature Arima was screened in Made in Spain and won several awards and she is now back in San Sebastián to present her second film The Rye Horn which took part in the Ikusmira Berriak programme in 2020. The director recreates the idyllic village life on an island off Galicia during Franco’s dictatorship where Maria earns a living gathering shellfish but doubles as a midwife who has to flee to Portugal so as not to be arrested after assisting in performing an abortion. The director says that she chose to set her film in this period because she wanted to work with characters that were closely attached to the land in a place and time when giving birth was a less medicalised process as well as it being a dark time when abortion was restricted and the decisions that women could take were strictly controlled. She also wanted her film to draw parallels with the present as she feels it is still really important to acknowledge the rights of women to decide on these matters.
