2015 marks the 20th the anniversary of the film "Stories of Kronen" by Montxo Armendariz, based on the novel written by José Ángel Mañas. As a result of the success of that novel, a great number of writers bursted onto the Spanish literary scene: The Kronen Generation. In those years, Luis Mancha wrote a book called "Kronen Generation", made up with interviews of those writers. Now he tries to reconnect them to recall what happened with them in the forgotten 90 years and what is going on now.

Writer
In April 2013, Luis Mancha went to the University of California, Irvine to meet Alejandro Morales, a remarkably under-read Chicano author whose historicism, baroque, and at times grotesque aesthetics are key to understanding his world view. His conglomeration of styles challenges both reader and literary critics. Morales's works present a vision of Southern California and America so different from the image that the United States has abroad that Mancha felt compelled to make this documentary film
