Description

The foundation in Madrid of the Institute of Investigations and Cinematographic Experiences (IIEC) in 1947, has been the most important event in the history of Spanish cinema. From there would come directors such as Luis García Berlanga, Juan Antonio Bardem, Carlos Saura, Miguel Picazo, José Luis Borau, Mario Camus, Antonio Mercero and Víctor Erice. Through their first film practices, we will learn about the history of the school and an entire country.
