'Guadalquivir', the first feature-length documentary mixed in Dolby Atmos, nominated for the Goya

A series of Goya-nominated films also use Dolby audio technologies.

The nature feature film Guadalquivir, produced by Wanda Vision and BitisDocu; with the participation of TVE, Canal Sur and Canal+ España, it is nominated for the Goya in the category of best documentary film.

Guadalquivir, filmed under the direction of Joaquín Gutiérrez Acha, is the first documentary in the world recorded with Dolby Atmos sound. José María Morales, producer of the feature film, and Carlos de Hita and Juan Ferro, responsible for the sound, have chosen this technology that allows for surround sound that makes the viewer feel as if they were in the middle of nature.

This film shows us life at the flow of the current, the landscapes of these three great spaces at different times of the year. It begins in autumn in the mountains of Cazorla and Segura, where the great river is born and the water, rather than flowing, falls over the cliffs and stone cliffs; They are the lands of the golden eagle, the deer and the ibex.

They follow the gentle and rough slopes of the Sierra Morena in winter, the landscapes of cranes, the black vulture and the Iberian lynx. The journey downstream concludes in Doñana, in spring and summer, where a barrier of dunes stops the river before dissolving into the sea, the waters overflow into the marshes and the biodiversity reaches the
highest levels in all of Europe.
