Directed by Javier Espada
Javier Espada explores how Luis Buñuel, one of the greatest precursors of surrealist cinema through works like “An Andalusian Dog” and “The Golden Age,” began to move away from this movement but never completely abandoned it, maintaining a strong oneiric element in his films. Taking us deep into his past and evolution as a creator, this documentary provides an unprecedented window into the world and work of an irreplaceable genius whose influence has reached the rest of the arts.
Plot Summary
Luis Buñuel, pioneer of the purest surrealist cinema since "An Andalusian Dog" and although he wanted to abandon it after "The Golden Age", he maintained continuous references to surrealist postulates during his cinematographic career in Mexico and later in France and Spain. Buñuel never ceased to cultivate these principles that emerged from his childhood, elements that, like dreams, have formed part of his most basic creative pillars and shaped a large part of the singularity of his cinema. Buñuel's cinema, like Goya's paintings, is in the creative paths of filmmakers, but also of writers, painters and playwrights. This documentary will allow a new generation of young audiences to discover this universal filmmaker. Buñuel's vision remains provocative, as well as enhanced by his links with art and literature.
