AroView: A Goya awarding-winning Spanish drama about a small act of social protest that can lead to making a positive difference in people’s lives.
Set in a post-Franco Barcelona of the late ‘70s, it’s based on the true story of a humble bus driver who finds himself on a sole crusade to bring public transport to his family and community who have been marginalized on the city’s outskirts since settling as civil refugees in the 1950s. Doing justice to the dignity of an underclass, it’s a film that celebrates that people sometimes do have the power without ever laboring the point.
“A fabulous work by Marcel Barrena, his best film, a work of craftsmanship [in which] everything exudes authenticity.” ~Tony Vall, Cinemania
“El 47 is an excellent film about the workers’ movement of the post-war and transition years in Spain.” ~Javier Diez, Cinemagavia
