The spirit of the beehive - Cinema

1 december 2015 
admission free

(Spain 1973) directed by Víctor Erice, starring Fernando Fernán Gómez, Teresa Gimpera, Ana Torrent, color, 97’, 35mm Italian dubbed version

Ana is an introverted young girl and a daydreamer, too. She lives in a small town in Franco's Spain, in 1940. A view of the film Frankenstein moves her to the point where she drifts into her fantasy world. When she bumps into a Republican soldier, she mistakes him for the monster and helps him hide away. Even if he made only three films, Erice is a legendary director and this is one of the most evocative film about childhood ever. A simple and yet complex work of art that left a lasting mark.
