Rere els murs del monestir. 700 anys duna història en femení'

This documentary is the result of a broad and ambitious research project that allows us to approach the Pedralbes Monastery from its origins to the present, as we have never been able to do before. The study of the documentation preserved in the monastery's archive, in parallel with the analysis of the traces that successive interventions have left on the building, allows us to understand how it grew and changed over the centuries until reaching the state in which we see it today. This monastery, founded by royal patronage, constituted for centuries a true centre of female power closely linked to the country and, particularly, to the city of Barcelona. Through 3D technology, viewers can virtually enter some of the rooms of the medieval monastery that have been recreated, with the utmost fidelity, based on the documentation, the physical evidence that has survived, and contemporary parallels. On the other hand, it should be noted that, although the image of the monastery presented is set at the beginning of the 15th century, the chapel of Sant Miquel has been included out of chronological order at the time of the murals that decorate it, which date from an earlier period, due to their exceptional nature within the monastery as a whole.
