From David Bowie to ‘Flying free’: the recommendations of the In-Edit 2026

The festival screens seventy music documentaries from October 29 to November 8 at the Mooby Aribau Cinema. A selection from the 24th edition ranges from David Bowie’s final Blackstar period and Marianne Faithfull’s last interview to the Barcelona club anthem “Flying free,” with portraits of critics, photographers, local venues and activist musicians.

What does In-Edit 2026 offer?

ARA’s Xavier Cervantes recommends a cross-section of the 70-documentary programme rather than a single style of music film. The selection moves between artist biography, music criticism, club history, local scenes, social activism and musical geography. It also contrasts concert films, fictional investigations, observational portraits and archival or contextual work.

All dates below refer to screenings at Barcelona’s Mooby Aribau Cinema. Festival schedules can change, so check the official programme before travelling.

Which documentaries should I see at In-Edit 2026?

Broken English

Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard open the festival with a film about Marianne Faithfull. It combines Faithfull’s final interview with a fictional investigation led by Tilda Swinton. Beth Orton performs “As tears go by,” while Courtney Love, Warren Ellis, Thurston Moore and Ed Harcourt contribute to the film. Screenings are scheduled for 29 October at 19:30 and 5 November at 18:30.

Hex

Maja Holand’s debut follows three women forming the black-metal band Witch Club Satan and reclaiming pagan-witch heritage. Its expressionist colours and shadows frame the film like a trial, making the band’s visual language as important as its music. Screenings: 1 November at 16:45 and 3 November at 21:30.

Bowie: the final act

Jonathan Stiasny focuses on David Bowie’s final stage, with the making of the testamentary 2016 album Blackstar as the documentary’s central point. It is the clearest choice for viewers interested in late-career creation, mortality and the deliberate construction of a final artistic statement. Screenings: 30 October at 21:00 and 8 November at 16:30.

Sixteen moments of my life / Seize moments de ma vie

Albert Serra films Ingrid Caven and the Molforts—Ferran Font, Enric Juncà, Joe Robinson and Marc Verdaguer—performing at Paris’s Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in 2025. Critic Eulàlia Iglesias describes a shared filmic introspection built around Caven’s sixteen themes. The festival lists screenings on 6 November at 19:00 and 8 November at 21:00; both title forms are used in the programme.
