An immersive exhibition celebrating the film "Love Leaves A Legacy: Creating La Bola Negra" will open next month at NYA Studios East in Hollywood. The event runs from December 4 to 6 and is presented by Netflix and KCRW.

Exhibition Details

The showcase highlights the cinematic vision of creators Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi. It features original costumes, props, production artwork, and behind-the-scenes photography. The exhibition also displays rare books curated by Peter Harrington to highlight the influence of Federico García Lorca. Work by crew members including cinematographer Gris Jordana, editor Alberto Gutiérrez, composer Raül Refree, costume designer Ana López Cobos, hair designer Pablo Morillas, makeup designer Mariló Osuna, and production designer Roger Bellés will be on display.

Film Plot and Festival Success

"La Bola Negra" follows a late-2010s historian named Carlos González, who connects a gay-themed Federico García Lorca play with a story about two soldiers in the Spanish Civil War played by Guitarricadelafuente and Miguel Bernardeau. The drama is inspired by the unfinished final work of Federico García Lorca and a play by Alberto Conejero. Since its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival with a 16-minute standing ovation and a Best Director Award, the film has won audience awards at the BFI London Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival. It will also receive the Gotham Vanguard Tribute award on November 30 and is Spain's official submission for best international feature at the 2027 Academy Awards.

Context

Immersive exhibitions often use props, artwork, and behind-the-scenes elements to let fans experience the creative process behind major films. Public access for this event is available by reservation on December 5 and 6 through Eventbrite.
