Instituto Cervantes, the cultural center of the Embassy of Spain, in collaboration with the Film Development Council of the Philippines and Ayala Museum, has programmed a film series and an art lecture associated with Picasso‘s famous painting Guernica and the historical period when it was created. 

This is to celebrate the 80th year the masterpiece was first unveiled to the public – July 12, 1937 to be exact. 

On April 26, 1937, the German aviation bombarded the Basque town of Guernica. Moved by the tragic event that caused many civilian casualties, Picasso, who had been commissioned by the government of the Republic to produce a painting for the Spanish Pavilion at the 1937 Paris International Exposition, decided to name his work after the Basque town. 

Guernica, a mural-sized oil painting on canvas by Pablo Picasso completed in 1937, at his home in Paris.

The film series Spain in the times of Picasso’s Guernica aims to offer a cinematic vision of the turbulent history of that decade. 

On July 15, 6 p.m., the documentary Raza, el espíritu de Franco (Race, the Spirit of Franco) will be featured. Directed by Gonzalo Herralde in 1977, this documentary produced after the dictator Francisco Franco‘s death, includes interviews with the dictator’s sister and the actor who played the leading role in the Franco-inspired film Raza.

On July 22, 6 p.m., the audience will have the opportunity to see a short documentary that has become a classic – Luis Buñuel’s Tierra sin pan (Land Without Bread). Produced in 1933, the film recounts Buñuel’s journey to Las Hurdes, a remote region in Extremadura, which was connected to the outside world only in 1922 with the completion of a road. The residents of the area – spread across several villages – had to endure miserable lives in poverty and isolation from the outside world. 

Las Hurdes: Tierra Sin Pan (1933) or Land Without Bread is a 27-minute-long documentary portrait of the region of Las Hurdes, a remote region of Spain where civilization has barely developed

The program for the day will be completed with the feature film Alsasua 1936, directed by Helena Taberna in 1994. Directed by Pilar Pérez in 2013, the documentary Las maestras de la República will conclude the movie series on July 29 at 6 p.m. This film, awarded with the Goya for Best Documentary in 2014, reflects the role of several female teachers, their effort to establish democracy in the country, and how they were key in the years between 1931 and 1936. All films will be shown in their original versions in Spanish with subtitles in English. 

The screenings will take place at the FDCP’s Cinematheque Centre Manila, 855 T.M. Kalaw, Ermita, Manila. 

Entrance is free on a first-come, first-served basis. 

For further information on the film series and the lecture please log on to: Instituto Cervantes’ website http://www.manila.cervantes.es or http://www.facebook.com/InstitutoCervantesManila, or call 526-1482.
