Fallas, the Festival of Fire is a documentary that has been recorded for 4 frenetic days, the same days this spectacular festival runs. Monuments, flowers, music and pyrotechnics, as well as Valencian people who live the Fallas intensely, are its protagonists; like Manolo García, the architect of the main Fallas sculpture in Valencia, who wants to make history by raising a sculpture of more than 20 meters high in the heart of the city; or Ana, at the age of just 8, who will live an unforgettable experience in this Fallas festival.
