In the early 1990s, Spanish dancer Mónica de la Fuente travelled to India, where she discovered classical dance traditions and a new way of understanding the body and artistic expression. Thirty years later, her daughter Nazaré follows the same path, exploring her mother’s memories and her own connection to this journey. Through old footage and a new dance performance, *Mudras: Dancing Invisible Threads* brings together two generations, linking Spain and India, past and present. The film reflects on heritage, identity and the lasting influence of art, showing how dance can connect people across cultures, time and distance.
