ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Semblance of the most influential Spanish artist of the last 5 decades.

The night he turned twenty, a car accident on a Madrid highway changed the life of a dream-filled young man forever.

That young man, immobilized in a hospital bed for more than a year and a half, hugged a guitar like it was his only escape valve. From his bed, without knowing it, Julio Iglesias would build one of the most fascinating stories of global conquest of the 20th century. The life of Julio Iglesias is much more than a collection of milestones and stats, it is a story of overcoming obstacles, love, fame, success, and redemption. His career is not only the tale of his incomparable triumph and reinvention, it is also the sociocultural chronicle of an entire country over the course of more than 70 years.

2019 marks the 50th anniversary of Julio Iglesias's debut album. With facts from his personal and professional trajectory, 'Oscar Garc'ia Blesa gathers all the pieces of a life puzzle, a tour through the lights and shadows of his history, a life as intense as the lyrics in many of his songs. Julio is the emotional, cultural, and sentimental chronicle of a unique artist who has never given up the stage and never plans to, as long as he lives.
