From Rosalía’s surreal poetry to the unsettling intensity of Vacío, the screen becomes a space for exploration and emotion.

Post-produced by Metropolitana and directed by Nicolás Méndez, the project unites Rosalía, Björk, and Yves Tumor in a surreal ode to the art of existence.
Rosalía’s new music video Berghain, directed by Nicolás Méndez and produced by CANADA, transforms routine into a stage where the real and the dreamlike meet, accompanied by an orchestra that follows every movement, as if music were the invisible shadow of existence.
Filmed in Warsaw, the video accompanies the release of the track alongside Björk and Yves Tumor, and marks the beginning of a new era for the Spanish artist, who once again chooses our production company CANADA to bring to life the first music video from her new album after iconic pieces like Malamente, Pienso en tu mirá, or TKN.
In this project, Méndez and Rosalía resume their creative complicity to explore an introspective narrative: that of a woman who inhabits time with consciousness, even when reality dissolves into the absurd.
The appearance of Björk at a certain point in the music video—like a bird singing between languages and universes—elevates the tone of the journey towards the mythical. The cinematography by Max Pittner, art direction by Andy Kelly, and post-production work by Metropolitana and El Ranchito construct an environment where sound, image, and emotion orbit with an almost spiritual harmony.
In Berghain, the trivial becomes transcendent, and beauty hides in the margins of what we consider insignificant. A piece that not only marks a new chapter in Rosalía’s history but also in that of CANADA and Metropolitana, reaffirming their ability to turn each project into a visual manifesto on the power of seeing—and feeling—differently.

Javier Cano Larumbe’s new short film tells a story where darkness ceases to be a metaphor and becomes a presence.
There are films that are not just projected, but felt. Vacío, the new short film directed by Javier Cano Larumbe and produced by Forty Entertainment, Mamma Team Productions, and Studio Arcadia Motion Pictures, delves into that territory where childhood fear becomes tangible, where shadow is no longer a symbol, but a body.
Starring María Valverde, Tomeu Artigas, and Javier Beltrán, the story follows Félix, an eight-year-old boy for whom darkness is not a simple void, but a dense and living threat that settles in his home. This presence—invisible but latent—embodies the fears we inherit and the absences that inhabit us.
The short film celebrated its national premiere last Wednesday, October 29, at the Alcalá de Henares Film Festival (ALCINE), a qualifying festival for the Goya Awards and the Oscars, and continued its journey on Thursday, October 30, at the International Fantastic Film Festival of Castilla y León.
With cinematography by Alvar Riu Dolz and original music by Bernardo Castro, Vacío proposes a visual and sound journey to that place where the everyday transforms into the unsettling, and where darkness—like cinema—reveals as much as it conceals.
A reminder that, sometimes, fear is not outside, but within… waiting to be seen.
