La guerra dibujada

¿Por qué morir en Madrid?

Contracampos

Contracampos is the attempt to (re)build a landscape. A recreational area and a shooting range in the west of Asturies, which, between 1937 and 1943, housed a Francoist concentration camp through which thousands of Republicans passed – firstly militiamen, later guerrillas and their relatives. Sharing a leisurely observation with the viewer, the film intends to resignify that space, giving it back its political meaning. But it is not a question of showing –of filming– the invisible, but rather of showing what is missing in what exists today. What was and is no longer, not even in people's memories.

The Silence of Others

The story of the tortuous struggle against the silence of the victims of the dictatorship imposed by General Franco after the victory of the rebel side in the Spanish Civil War (1936-1975). In a democratic country, but still ideologically divided, the survivors seek justice as they organize the so-called “Argentinian lawsuit” and denounce the legally sanctioned pact of oblivion that intends to hide the crimes they were subjects of.

Picassos Friseur

El Terrer, un poble emmudit

Between 1939 and 1956, the Franco regime shot more than 2,000 republicans in Paterna. They were years of terror, of silence, of arbitrariness, of planned and systematic elimination of any progressive vestige. The documentary portrays the collective effort of the people of Paterna to recover the memory and dignity of those who died defending democracy. Shown through the point of view of those protagonists who were silenced and those voices condemned to oblivion.

Febrero 1937. Memoria de una huida
