EL AÑO DEL DESCUBRIMIENTO
Spain, Switzerland 2020 – Director: Luis López Carrasco – Original language: Spanish – Subtitles: English, French, German
Spain, 1992 – the year of the superlative. Less than 10 years in the EU and already it's time to celebrate. There are the Olympics in Barcelona, Expo in Seville and the 500th anniversary of the “discovery” of America. In Cartagena, however, away from all the glitz, decisions are taken that have an impact on the local industry. The atmosphere is explosive. In a bar we get to know “the people”. Elena Álvarez Lutz

Retrospective: Franquismo in Spain
Franco's legacy – for a long time a culturally untouched, nationwide trauma that has become a defining part of Spanish identity. We present six films from four decades of facing and coping with Franquismo.
