Rocío Carrasco unveils documentary and biopic honoring Rocío Jurado

Rocío Carrasco has reappeared in Chipiona to lead a tribute to her mother, Rocío Jurado, amid ongoing family tensions over the documentary 'La más grande' (Movistar Plus) and the upcoming biopic. The documentary, which Carrasco describes as "una maravilla," features Jurado's own autobiographical writings and has sparked criticism from family members like Gloria Camila and Amador Mohedano for not including them. Carrasco declined to engage with the controversy, stating, "Yo sobre las polémicas no voy a decir nada ni voy a entrar" Source: Infobae.

The biopic, currently filming in Chipiona, will cover key moments of Jurado's life, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of her death.

Carrasco expressed joy about the tributes, saying, "a mí me llena todo, todo lo que a la gente le guste y todo lo que sea bueno para ella" Source: Infobae. She also confirmed involvement in the biopic, though she missed the Chipiona shoot due to documentary commitments. The documentary aims to reveal Jurado's feminist and avant-garde side, as Carrasco noted: "La historia lo que aporta es que cuenta la vida de mi madre desde sus inicios hasta su partida... y la cuenta ella directamente" Source: El Mundo.
