Overview

An exploration —manipulated and staged— of life in Las Hurdes, in the province of Cáceres, in Extremadura, Spain, as it was in 1932. Insalubrity, misery and lack of opportunities provoke the emigration of young people and the solitude of those who remain in the desolation of one of the poorest and least developed Spanish regions at that time.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A provocative pseudo-documentary that blurs the line between observation and artifice, presenting the stark realities of rural Spanish poverty through a surrealist lens that disturbs and questions even as it documents.
