Overview

During the Spanish Civil War, more than 500 young Spanish pilots went through the Russian Aviation School in Kirovabad, former capital of the current Republic of Azerbaijan. Once the Spanish war was over, some of them remained in Soviet territory and continued their fight against Fascism on the side of the Russian army.

Obsessively referring to the traumas and wounds that the Spanish civil war (1936-39) and Franco's dictatorship (1939-75) caused in their day no longer serves to explain the impassable abyss of incomprehension and hatred that the abject policies and radical positions adopted by both the right and the left in recent decades have opened up before the citizens of a country that is barely known beyond hackneyed cultural clichés.

Tres días de julio

Jan 1, 2016

"Tres días de julio" shows what happened in the city of Cádiz in the hours prior to the coup d'état of July 18, 1936, as well as what happened until the moment the Cadiz capital succumbs to the rebels on the morning of Sunday the 19th. The documentary features the participation of historians, relatives of victims of reprisals, and even some direct testimonies of people who lived those tragic days in their youth. The city and province of Cádiz are described as a fundamental piece in the coup because, when it failed in the main cities of the country, they began to play a fundamental role in the strategy followed by the rebels in the immediate Civil War.

Barcellona, ferita aperta

Jul 17, 2016

Ordered personally by Mussolini, with the expression "martellamento diluito nel tempo", the bombings were a studied way of sowing terror, massacring citizens little by little and ending their sources of livelihood. The film provides little-known data from that episode, such as official documents that show that democratic Italy continued to receive money from Spain for its participation in the war. In 2013, the Barcelona Court accepted a complaint against the Italian pilots who participated in the bombings. The victims, for their part, are still waiting for Italy to apologize for these events.

Brigades Internationales. Entre mémoire et silence

Jan 1, 2016

This documentary summarizes one of the most beautiful pages of contemporary history. Thousands of women and men, some "foreigners" wrote them: the page of anti-fascist solidarity with the Spanish Republic and its victorious Popular Front in February 1936 for some, and solidarity with the "revolution" for others; both causes for most of them.

Franco on Trial: The Spanish Nuremberg?

Feb 20, 2018

Franco on Trial is the new film by Dietmar Post and Lucía Palacios. After the success of Franco's Settlers, their first encounter with Franco's dictatorship, they are now setting their sights on one of the darkest chapters of European history: the presumed organized extermination that took place during the coup, the war, and the subsequent dictatorship led by Franco, as well as Argentina's current effort, by invoking the principle of universal jurisdiction, to prosecute Francoists accused of committing crimes against humanity. The film is also a sore reminder of an issue that still stands today: the clear-cut accountability held by Germany, Italy, and Portugal. The film accomplishes to give both sides a voice - those against whom the killing has been directed; and the side of the perpetrators.
