Casteller

Mike Randolph recently shot this film showing the tradition of human towers in Catalonia.

In Tarragona in Spain people gather every two years to build human castles (or ‘castells’), a Catalan tradition which originated in the local area around the end of the 18th century.

The sight of humans supporting each other, along with the vibrant colors inside the stadium, make for compelling viewing.
