Cristalino: From Goya Nominee to Precarious Music
Francisco Martín Ocete, known as Cristalino, was cast by Isaki Lacuesta to play Florent, the legendary guitarist of Los Planetas, in the film 'Segundo premio' (2024). This leap into acting led the film to become Spain's Oscar entry, winning three Goya Awards, and earned Cristalino a nomination for Best New Actor. Now, he releases his EP 'Destello, señal, hilo y alba', using the opportunity to address the precarious state of the cultural sector in the age of algorithms. The interview also references Teo Lucadamo's statement: 'Of course there is music for fascists, the concerts of that bunch are Vox rallies.'
