FACTS OF A FILM INDUSTRY

Galicia, a region in northwestern Spain, has a population of 2.7 million and an autonomous government – Xunta de Galicia – with specific competencies in the audiovisual sector. Alongside its independent television, TVG, Xunta de Galicia acts as a leading promoter of audiovisual content, through the large number of production and service companies based in the Galicia region.

Thanks to its magnificent countryside and the competence of its professionals, Galicia has been the chosen location for large-scale international co-productions, such as Death and the Maiden (Roman Polansky, 1994), Road to Santiago (Robert Young, 1999), Dagon (Stuart Gordon, 2001), Pilgrims (Colinne Serreau, 2006) or the recent The Way (Emilio Estévez, 2010) which have attracted stars such as Anthony Quinn, Charlton Heston, Sigourney Weaver, Ben Kingsley or Martin Sheen to the Galician scene. At the same time, major successes from Spanish cinema such as Los lunes al sol (Fernando León de Aranoa, 2002), Bad Education (Pedro Almodóvar, 2004) and Los girasoles ciegos (José Luis Cuerda, 2009) have been shot either in part or wholly in the region, utilising local technical and artistic talent.

Recently the Galician audiovisual sector has been experiencing an extraordinary growth; proof of this is the enormous success of the thriller Celda 211 (Daniel Monzón), the largest commercial success of Spanish cinema in the last years, which obtained 9 Awards from the Spanish Film Academy. International hits such as Oscar® Winner The Sea Inside (Alejandro Amenábar) are part of Galician film production. And Pedro Almodóvar chose Santiago de

Compostela to start the shoting of his last film, La piel que habito.

Galicia is also a leader in animation. In 2001 a Galician studio produced the first European full-length 3D film, El bosque animado (Ángel de la Cruz, Manolo Gómez). Since then the Spanish Film Academy has given awards to large numbers of animation films produced in this region, which have also been exported worldwide: Midsummer Dream (2002), Pinoccho 3000 (2004), Pérez, el ratoncito de tus sueños (2007), Nocturna (2008), amongst others.

Added to this is a diversity of formats and numerous TV Series and content derived from Galician Television, with excellent results in both fiction as well as the documentary genres.

Galicia is favourably positioned for future investment and as a pace setter in the audiovisual sector, not only owing to the entrepreneurialism of its corporate infrastructure, but also to its solid roster of producers, screenwriters, technicians and actors. But the heritage does not end here: we possess magnificent natural resources, from mountains to hundreds of kilometres of coastline, a wealth of outstanding cultural and architectural treasures, visited yearly by millions of pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago, all coupled with a vibrant and robust spirit of enterprise.

All this drives us to seek new opportunities and challenges throughout the world, new screens for our productions and new pathways to open. We proudly present here and now the very best of our production output.

After a long night of discussion, and determined to split up, a couple of lovers pass the lastmoments of their relationship by walking the city they are visiting.

Eva is a young Galician woman who lives, since completing her university studies, in Barcelona. An art restorer, her return to Galicia has led her to work at the Samos Monastery. Eva works efficiently but she is dispassionate. While taking a break she is calm but she watches her phone, awaiting news of her lover. He is a Catalan lawyer who has promised to join her at the week-end. The fact that he is married and has a son makes Eva doubt he will keep his promise. Despite her fears, he comes and meets Eva at the Santiago de Compostela airport. However, after the first few hours of excitement about the meeting, the situation suddenly changes. The relationship they have is insincere and unstable and, after a bitter argument, the couple agrees to bring it to an end. Even so, the lovers decide to spend the next day in the city together.

So, from morning until nightfall, they will walk through Compostela while living out the final moments of their relationship. The city will reflect their moods in a physical and emotional journey through museums, churches, streets and parks, during which Eva will rethink their life situation. When the tension between them becomes unsustainable, each one will definitely go his and her own way. Her lover will disappear at night in a bar. Eva, meanwhile, will decide to continue their journey alone through the city. Finally, a meeting with Manuel, a peculiar young university student, will change her plans unexpectedly.

JUST IN TIME

A mind undergoing a deconstruction process looks for her own space in the human soul hotels where she can observe the reality of mankind, a new vision of what lies hidden behind the seven deadly sins.

ANGER- obsessive refusal to accept others as oneself. LUST- excessive love of others; a huge appetite for living. GREED- unstructured and destructive desire for pleasure, irrational consumption of affections. AVARICE- manipulation of power or the sin against god. PRIDE- the desire to be better than the rest, failing to recognise the value of others. LAZINESS- the incapacity for self-acceptance and taking care of oneself. ENVY- to derive pleasure from depriving others, to be convinced that we are worth more.

Ana, who is influenced by the cultural learning of her brother Kristoff, ends up reading the “Codex Calixtinus”, which narrates experiences from the French Way along the Jacobean route to Santiago de Compostela. It is then that she discovers the character Gerberga of Flanders, the first woman in history to walk the French Way. Ana falls in love with this character and decides to travel the same route that Gerberga chose in the book. Accompanied by a team of cameramen, Ana spends seven days walking from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port to Santiago de Compostela in a journey of initiation into spiritual maturity, during which she discovers a great secret: who Gerberga of Flanders really was.

Sam is eleven and loves data. He also likes to collect stories and fantastic events. He wants to know about UFOs and horror films, aircraft and ghosts. He also wants to know how it feels to take his first drink of beer, take the first puff of a cigarette on the sly ... the first kiss with a girl.

Sam wants to know how it feels to be an adolescent because he will not live to find out for himself. He has leukemia and although adults respond with ambiguity to avoid taboo topics, Sam wants to know all the facts and details about death.

He is willing to learn the answers to questions nobody wants to answer. In the hands of his parents, his sister Ella, and his friend Felix, who live through intimate moments, Sam shares with us a particularly moving and sometimes amusing world view of his circumstances, proving to be the voice of an exceptional being transformed by the immensity of what lies ahead.

This is the story of two brothers, the Crebinskys, who were born from the love between Vladimir Crebinsky, a shipwrecked Russian, and María Cribeiro, a local woman who found Vladimir when she was doing her daily scan of the coast, and decided to share the rest of her life with him. After some years of love and having fathered Feodor and Mijail, the main characters of this story, one beautiful summer evening Vladimir and María die crushed by a tree. Feodor and Mijail are left alone in the world.

Shortly after, torrential rains cause the river level to rise sharply, flooding the village where they live. Everything is swept away by the current, including Feodor, Mijail and their cow. Miraculously they wash up somewhere on the coast. They grow up there, at the foot of a lighthouse, and live happily for some years, surviving by picking up stuff brought in by the sea, the crebas. Until they set off on an existential journey that leads them back to their origins, with their Cow as a guide.

A walking-film of absurd quests, inner journeys and unexpected encounters: the Crebinskys travel without knowing where they are going and end up finding out where they come from.

Rosario Francesc is a writer and housewife, living a completely conventional life, who visits the psychotherapist because of her panic episodes at night. In a few sessions, the psychotherapist confronts her with her own acceptance as a writer. She should risk the opinion of others, show her work to people in her daily life and have a go at publishing companies. Rosario does so, but on the way issues and fears, feelings of guilt, and the discovery of sexual expressions with persons outside the marriage arise. Her stories reflect, in some way, all this; they explore the world around her beyond her little problems and reveal Rosario’s own story.

It hasn’t stopped raining for three months and SPLEEN, a dandy, only likes three things in life: Valle-Inclán, the Smiths, and bad girls with fringes. He spends his nights with his Bohemian friends from the Actors’ Tavern.The night it stops raining, SPLEEN meets THE RUSSIAN, a bad girl with a fringe, and they begin a tender and unexpected journey around a strange stone city into the depths of the night and inside themselves which will totally change their lives… until sunrise and the rain returns, lights are lit and dreams end.

Sometimes love is murder.

DRAKO is a cold, sinister person, but with a great magnetism that seduces everyone that falls within his sphere. Diego is an Argentine musician who plays in his band; this young musician will soon fall into Drako’s dangerous and seductive net, and will discover that Drako’s dark past may drag him into the most complicated story that he has ever lived.

DUST tells a personal story that takes place while Alejandra and Ignacio produce a documentary on women who are looking for their husbands and fathers; men who were disappeared in 1982 during the armed conflict in an indigenous village of Guatemala during the Civil War.

Amongst the families of the disappeared, they meet Delfina and Juan, mother and son. Juan is almost the same age as Ignacio.

During a turning point of their life, the story focuses on daily goings-on and how the main characters become more aware through what they see and hear during the recording of the documentary.

1911, Arga, a rural village in the northwestern Spanish region of Galicia. A terrible curse falls on the evil Marchioness of Mariño and her son, transforming him into a werewolf. One hundred years later, Tomás Mariño, a failed writer and the only male descendent of the Mariño family, returns to Arga to be awarded the freedom of the village. But things aren’t as they seem. The real reason he has been invited is to be the main protagonist and sacrificial victim in an obscure ceremony that must be carried out by the villagers one hundred years after the curse first came into effect, in order to end the reign of fear of the werewolf which has been terrorizing the region. However, Mariño, with the help of Calisto, an old friend from the village, manages to escape. What they don’t realize is that, as the ceremony hasn’t been carried out on the exact date, a second curse will fall on the village, much worse and more dangerous than the first: all the villagers are transformed into raging, hungry werewolves. From that moment on, our protagonists, who have been joined by Mario, a literary editor, and Rosa, Tomás’s grandmother, are forced to spend the longest, most terrifying night of their lives trying to escape by any possible means (some of them very stupid) from the hell full of beasts that Arga has now become... but, of course, without losing their sense of humour.

YEARS LATER portrays the conflicts resulting from the separation and reuniting of a particular family, caused by a war and ideological differences. The main locations (a Galician village in northwestern Spain and Mexico City) and the characters reflect the contrast between two very different lifestyles: urban and rural, the speed of the city and the opposing peace and quiet of a village.

EL ETERNAUTA’S WIFELA MUJER DEL ETERNAUTA

It’s now over fifty years since the adventures of Juan Salvo, “El Eternauta”, were first published. Even today this comic book continues to surprise thousands of readers all over the world after introducing, some point in 1957, a new way of understanding comic strips: it transcended the limits of mere escapism to become an adult and politically committed story.

The Argentine artist and scripwriter of this comic book, Héctor Oesterheld, created a highly metaphorical and political comic strip that, contrary to the norm at the time, took place in Buenos Aires, far away from the usual settings depicted in most other comic strips (US, France). Unfortunately, Héctor Oesterheld was a victim of the military repression and, to this day, he is one of many missing persons that fills an entire country’s memory with sorrow.

But Elsa Sánchez, his partner and closest ally during many years is still with us. She is the wife of “El Eternauta”; the woman who survived Héctor’s disappearance and the murder of their four daughters: Beatriz, Estela, Diana y Marina. The film portrays a woman who managed to overcome a dire situation and to forge ahead during those difficult years, when repression and death were ever-present, protagonists of one of the darkest periods in Argentina’s history... A woman who never shared her husband’s radical ideology and who, at all times, wanted him to abandon all political affiliation so that his life and that of their daughters would not be at risk... A woman who, in short, proved to be full of courage and guts and who, today, is willing to talk about those distressing events.

BEHINDTHE LIGHTSTRALAS LUCESUN TREN A PAMPA BLANCA

BEHIND THE LIGHTS (TRALAS LUCES) is the story of a journey. A creative documentary which travels along with Lourdes, a woman who belongs to a Portuguese family of traders. Travelling with her and her family, along roads and through towns and villages, we discover a history of roaming and uprooting. A world in danger of extinction.

A TRAIN TO PAMPA BLANCA is the story of a very unusual train journey, the story of a hospital train.

Just three carriages, which for the past 25 years have been travelling across the north of Argentina providing medical assistance in areas steeped in poverty and which are lacking in any kind of aid. But it is also an approach to, and vision of, one of the hardest to understand of Latin American realities.

For the seamen in Lira, Costa da Morte, the Prestige oil spill provided the opportunity to change their relation-ship with a sea depleted by overfishing and pollution. The first Marine Reservation of Fishing Interest was founded at the request of the traditional fishing community in Lira, an initiative which placed them as an international model for innovation in the industry. Nevertheless, change takes time and causes tension and issues. Fishermen and women from Lira, who gather shellfish, leading characters in this documentary, give us an up to date view on this environmental issue facing traditional fishing communities around the world, and to all of us who are becoming increasingly aware of ocean overexploitation and the extinction of species.

Documentary about the secrets of this German hermit who created sculptures with stones, walked almost naked and lived 40 years in the Coast of Death.

THE RESTLESS MAN talks about the life and work of a person called “Man”. A German artist who lived40 years as a hermit among marine rocks. The marine rocks were a culture medium that created a special, singular artist’s place that still lingers on the Coast of Death in Galicia (Spain). “Man”, the last German Romantic, colonized a scene, building his 9-square-metre home inspired by the Ronchamp Cathedral (designed by Le Corbusier). Man took pictures of his enviroment and of his masterful work.

He painted, sculpted and synthesized his thought forms in many aphorisms. At age 67 he decided to end his life after seeing his museum destroyed for the third time.

FLAMENCO GYPSIES FROM BUENOS AIRES is a documentary focused on well known Spanish Flamenco guitarist David Amaya, who settled in Buenos Aires in 1999. There he encounters what he calls “the incredible discovery of the El Congreso neighbourhood”: a Spanish gypsy community whose patriarchs immigrated to Argentina after the Spanish Civil War, and which preserves its identity, culture and customs.

This is a highly interesting work of art reflecting, not only flamenco music so far from home, but also the social aspect of this amazing group of people.

MRS… WHAT’S-HIS-NAME shows the testimonies of several generations of women whom history did not even allow to dream. The only thing they could do was to resign themselves and accept the fact they were born and brought up in those times when their voices, their desires and even their thoughts were silenced. The testimonies gathered in MRS… WHAT’S-HIS-NAME are diverse and depict a wide spectrum of women from different social strata and different educational backgrounds. Women from the city and the countryside, the sea and inland, face their memories and speak for the first time about what their lives were like, and about lifestyles that today, in our western and developed society, are intolerable but which represent the lives of Galician and Spanish women of not a long time ago.

Landscape is memory.

The year 1990 saw the publication of “El Río del Olvido”, a book in which Julio Llamazares narrates his journey on foot ten years ago along the river Curueño, in the north of the province of Leon (Spain), where the writer is from. The book begins with an idea: “landscape is memory”.

Thirty years after that journey, again with the writer to browse the locations of the book for a documentary film made of memory and landscape, a film about two trips.

The futures exchange is the place where we speculate on the future of a society which has forgotten where it comes from and where it is heading.

Memory loss, the destruction of landscape, monetary speculation and the moral principles of the managers of a future that is less certain with each passing day. For the first time, finance and the economy are at the centre of a reflexion that goes beyond the analysis of headines. A signature film that shows the actual reality of business and finance through the past and through memory.

In 1789 on the Galician coast a prosperous sardine salting industry thrives, whilst the Catalans who founded it 15 years earlier are reaping the benefits of their enterprise.

But one of them, Amadeo Curt, exploits the fishermen who work for him amassing a fortune and wielding more and more power using methods akin to slavery and extortion.

The fishermen, tired and beaten by the tyrant, have lost all hope of finding a solution.

Anxo Estrada, who had fled from the town after confronting Amadeo Curt, returns as Captain of the Armada, after serving for 15 years at sea. Anxo decides the time has come to make a stand. He leads the fishermen in a revolt where they fight for their lives, their dignity and, above all, for their freedom.

Thrilling biopic about one of the most interesting figures in recent Spanish business history. The story of a man who built an empire from scratch.

Eduardo Barreiros, a businessman born in Orense (Galicia, Spain), founder of the brand of enginesand trucks named after him, managed to be, in 1964, the sixth most important businessman inEurope. In those days, almost half of the trucks on Spanish roads were his. Barreiros’ professional career began with the brilliant idea of converting petrol-burning motors into diesel engines, creating an industrial empire with almost 25,000 workers. But something went wrong. After losing control of his own company at the hands of the American manufacturer, Chrysler, Barreiros left his factory and his trucks disappeared from the roads.

Without a doubt we are before one of the main figures of the Spanish auto industry, “the SpanishHenry Ford”.
