The Mayor asks RTVE for the relay of the next Good Friday procession (21/11/2018)

It is about spreading the greatest social, cultural and religious phenomenon of Lorca, coinciding with the XXV anniversary of the broadcast made by Pilar Miró.

The Mayor of Lorca, Fulgencio Gil, met this morning with representatives of the Association that promotes the candidacy of the Art of Embroidery of Lorca in the biblical-passional parades of Holy Week, and all the Steps, to inform them that the City Council is going to request formally to the Corporation of Radio and Television Spanish, SA (RTVE), the relay of the biblical-passional parade of Good Friday Lorca, coinciding with the XXV anniversary of the one made by the professional team led by Pilar Miró.

The Mayor stressed that the Lorca society considers of key importance the promotion of this event, even more so when it would allow to continue promoting the candidacy of Lorca Embroidery and its Staging in the Biblical-Passional Parades of Holy Week for its declaration as Intangible Heritage of Humanity on the part of UNESCO.

We are talking about a matter of special importance for the whole municipality, which would contribute to strengthen Lorca socially, culturally and touristically, and which, in addition, constitutes one of the most important challenges of this City Council.

Fulgencio Gil has stressed that we are aware of the vital importance of having this opportunity, inviting RTVE to retransmit our incomparable Biblical-Passion Parade of Good Friday, from the assurance that it would be an important revulsive for our city in these difficult moments , an undeniable way to help Lorca and a speaker to share the message of hope of the City of the Sun.

The First Edil explained that the Biblical-Pastoral Parades of the Holy Week of Lorca, declared of International Tourist Interest, make up a singular phenomenon, unique in the world in which tradition and show, passion and fervor narrate in a way singular the History of the Redemption through an own identity forged in the lorquino embroidery, the presence of the horse, the throne in litters, the music, the passion ...

Fulgencio Gil recalled that the edition of Holy Week in 2019 commemorates the anniversary of one of the most important tourism and cultural outreach initiatives that have taken place in our city.

It is the XXV Anniversary of one of the moments of major international relevance of our processions, as was the relay by RTVE of the passionate biblical parade on Good Friday, with the displacement of an ambitious team of professionals headed by one of the directors. most outstanding in the history of film and television in our country, as was Pilar Miró.

We are talking about a historic opportunity that allowed us to publicize our social, cultural and religious event on a global level without parallel.

We are aware that every year it is not possible, for obvious reasons, to make this kind of proposal, but we want to take advantage of this anniversary so that Spain puts her eyes on Lorca again, and this time not because of a tragic event, but because of our Greater expression as a city.

We want our processions to be a message from Lorca to the world, and we want to show the reality of this city and the effort we are making to recover everything lost.

For the effort that we are carrying out to be able to celebrate our processions and because the city of Lorca deserves it, we ask RTVE to accept this offer, since for all the Brotherhoods and for the city in general it would be an immense honor retransmitieran for all Spain our incomparable Holy Week.

We must remember that precisely Article 3 of Law 17/2006, of June 5, on radio and television of specific state ownership that in the exercise of its public service function, RTVE should, among other things, promote cohesion territorial, the plurality and linguistic and cultural diversity of Spain, as well as offering access to the different genres of programming and institutional, social, cultural and sporting events, aimed at all sectors of the audience, paying attention to those topics of special public interest.

RTVE also aims to serve the widest audience, ensuring maximum continuity and geographical and social coverage, with the commitment to offer quality, diversity, innovation and ethical demand.

The proposal will be raised to the next plenary session of the Consistory.
