MELH: Armand y la historia de un movimiento

The birth of the LGTBI movement in Spain comes from the determination of the Francoist courts to legislate, prosecute and punish all sexual dissidents with the “Law on dangerousness and social rehabilitation”. This fact triggers the decision of a small group of three people to face it. After a first success obtaining an important international media coverage, this law was modified and the MELH (Spanish Movement for Homosexual Liberation) was born in 1970. The MELH team is led by Armand de Fluvià, the true creator of the LGBT movement in Catalonia and Spain. With his testimony, the documentary reconstructs the birth and growth of the LGTBI movement in Spain.

Un cielo impasible

Part of the historical revision of the battle of Brunete, part of the chronicle of the fieldwork carried out by a group of students next to the director, David Varela! signs a polyhedral portrait composed from different sources (current testimonies, written memoirs of the combatants, photos, maps, comments by scholars) that overlap the contemporary landscape of forests, groves, crops, bunkers and ruined buildings. Remains of shipwrecks that link a journey of more than 80 years through which, through the experience of young people, they become aware of the gap opened in our historical memory. FICX 2021
