A journey through the history of Spanish cinema following the life and professional career of Florián Rey, a director who began a prestigious career in silent film and authored great commercial successes during Spain’s Second Republic. His contribution was essential in the creation of the still fledgling Spanish film industry. His was a figure with lights and shadows, since his ideological ties led him to a progressive fall from grace until his retirement in absolute oblivion. In the 21st century, discovering his mastery in the use of narrative rhythm and his refined technique leads us to the recovery of his immense legacy.
Director, scriptwriter and producer of documentaries such as ‘Apuntes desde la fila 8’ (2009), ‘Tu alma es un paisaje escogido’ (2011), ‘Espacios habitados’ (2012), ‘La palabra libre’ (2015) or ‘En tu piel ‘(2018). In 2013, she presented out of competition the documentary short ‘Por qué escribo’ in Time of History; and a year later ‘Aragón rodado’ in the DOC. España section.
