La promesse de Franco
Directed by Marc Weymuller2014 2h 3mDocumentary
In the north of Spain at the heart of the Aragon: ruined houses, gutted facades and streets lost amongst the rubble. These are the remains of the old village of Belchite which was the scene of fierce fighting during the Spanish civil war. A few hundred meters away there is the «new» village, built in the fifties, on the order of Franco. The two villages live side by side in the enigmatic coexistence of past and present.
