Land Without Bread - Las Hurdes
Luis Buñuel
This film has no current screenings
Part of our Luís Buñuel retrospective, Buñuel in Spain!
One of the most remarkable documentaries ever made, Land without Bread is a startling, upsetting journey to one of the poorest regions of Spain, done in an irony-laced, “purely observational” style that serves to underscore the misery that Buñuel is capturing and denouncing.
Screening with España 1936
Jean-Paul Le Chanois | 1937 | Spain | 35m
Made just as the Civil War was beginning, Spain ’36 was largely a compilation film produced and written by Buñuel used to stir international solidarity for the defense of the Spanish Republic.
