Abata
2026, Basque. Directed by Aner Etxebarria Moral & Pablo Vidal.
A short documentary film narrated by Orson Welles and Gerardo Damboriena, one of the last pigeon hunters of Etxalar
In 1955, fascinated by the ingenious pigeon hunting with wooden paddles and nets, Orson Welles directed the documentary The Land of the Basques. Today, from a mountain hut on the border between Navarre and France, Gerardo Damboriena, a veteran pigeon hunter, reveals to us in basque the secrets of this more than 700-year-old tradition, now on the verge of extinction.
