Pere Portabella’s first work as a director starts with the following phrase: “defeated…but not conquered”. This may or should be taken as an allusion to the technical K.O. taken by Portabella from Franco’s regime during the sixties as regards his work as a producer. Through the extremely raging playthings of the words of Catalan poet Joan Brossa, Portabella attempts to dismantle the forms of advertising discourse of that time.

DJ Spooky's Rebirth of a Nation is a film project based on a remix of D.W. Griffith's infamous 1915 film Birth of a Nation. The original film was based on a novel and theater play by Thomas Dixon entitled The Clansman - essentially what Dj Spooky is doing is applying dj technique to cinema in a way that parallels, deconstructs and remixes the original. Thus Rebirth of a Nation DJ Spooky's Rebirth of a Nation has been touring for several years and has drawn acclaim around the world. From the Herod Atticus Theater at the base of the Acropolis in Greece, to the London IMAX - Europe's largest movie screen - Dj Spooky has presented the remix as an engagement with film, music, and contemporary art. He likes to think of it as "film as found object" in the same sense that artists such as Marcel Duchamp, Jeff Koons, Andy Warhol, and David Hammons, amongst many others, have fostered creative investigations into the idea of found objects, cinema, and "appropriation art."

The film depicts where life can begin and where it can lead for a filmmaker, and in the journey between existence and non-existence, it illustrates where the mind and heart can reach through the medium of cinema. The mentioned filmmaker, as ever, surrenders himself once again in the depths of the forest with his camera, adding a new film to his life and beliefs. For him, cinema and the life he reaches through cinema touch upon all the emotions and thoughts that can be questioned in the world where he resides and is tested by its absence. The nature he reaches thanks to this journey is something presented to him from nothingness. Unable to decide what to do with this nothingness, the filmmaker, ultimately makes a film that he can present to people with the nature bestowed upon him. The resulting film essentially belongs to a day of the man who roams in the forest and points his camera at the trees.
