Pasaia is the bay where the main commercial port of Gipuzkoa is placed. The urban and industrial fabric grew and was structured around the productive activity of that harbor, which, ever since the industrial crisis keeps declining. Pasaia Bitartean has its starting point in the architectural project with the same name that Jonander Agirre Mikelez made during the year 2013. The idea of articulating this project as a film came up as a consequence of the search of other methodologies to think the city and its common spaces.

"Dealing with the tensions between work and leisure, nature and culture, the industrial fabric and community, these three films demonstrate how the supposed opposition between these pairs gives way to a subtle interweaving that generates an unusually complex portrait of a social group. Open iron pit mines in the Austrian Alps, hydropower stations in the Atlantic-Pyrenees, and other mountainous locations in the Basque Country harbor floating concert stages, helicopter and motorbike TV transmission units, exhausted bike riders and shouting aficionados, enduro racers, rally cars, flying models, and do-it-yourself soap boxes. All of these mechanized bodies in direct contact with landscapes actively transfigure the territory." Anthology Film Archives on the Vázquez/Arrieta films.

A group of friends share a cinematographical experience in a particular region of Spain, Galicia. The goal is simple: to film what they like, without preconceived ideas about what should be filmed. They want their images to reflect the feelings that unite them with the people they find along the way.
