Cinema: The Long Vacation of '36 (1976x32)

Uitzenddatum: Dec 01, 1976

It is one year since Franco's death, and Spanish film-makers are now beginning to test the new political atmosphere, heralded in 1973 by the extraordinary 'Spirit of the Beehive'. Arena: Cinema went to Spain to talk with several Spanish directors—Bardem, Saura, Borau, Camino—about the problems of a country where a bad review can still mean jail.
