Los oficios de Cándido
Director
Toros tres (Guisando-Goya-Picasso)
Director
"Toros tres as Pasajes tres, also bases his visual game on a counterpoint. Toros de Guisando, Goya, Picasso, in a way, they come to tell the story of the people who have been contemplating them through the centuries ... / ... I would say that more than a story of bulls, this excellent short film is a history of the Hispanic gaze" Mario Benedetti
Blanco vertical

The daily life of the monks in the Trappist monastery located in La Oliva (Navarra). Through the statements of some of the members of this community - the doorman brother, the father prior, the poet ... - we attend their prayers but also work: laundry, bakery, tailoring, masonry, bookbinding workshop, the wine making and field cultivation. And silence: they do not speak, they communicate with the language of their hands. But above all his special sense of time.

Director
Short film by Javier Aguirre
Playa insólita
Director
"That film of his so cynical, so sadistic, so anarchic and fierce, entitled "Unusual beach", of extraordinary aesthetic value." José Luis Garci
Vizcaya cuatro
Director
Vizcaya seen from four different points of view: the sea, the countryside, the industry and the landscape. Each of the aspects is treated plastic and dynamically in a different way: black and white, sepia, negative and color. Music also establishes four different modalities.
Espacio dos
Director
"I consider that Espacio dos and Tiempo dos must be considered as important works . Moreover, I affirm that, together with Tierra sin pan and Cuenca, it is the only truly important thing that has been done in Spain within the documentary genre." Javier Sagastizábal
Tiempo de playa
Director
"Tiempo de playa" above all. There is my whole world, all my sensitivity, all my now frustrated adolescent desire. It seems as if a time were repeating to me where the shore was not a limit and where fantastic Grandville landscapes were built on the sand. All the beaches in the world are unpublished. Something hinted Tati, and now Aguirre, of that otherworld of them. I only ask Javier to persevere in building on the sand that civilization of taste, that subtle touch to erotically enjoy them" Luis G. Berlanga.
Tiempo dos
Director
"Tiempo dos is a melancholic and sad movie. Soft gray and poetically evocative. It is made with the heart. It has purity, it denotes clarity and is sharp and concise. The image that most remains me is that of the old-fashioned photographic apparatus protected from the rain by the umbrella" Rafael Alberti
Pasajes tres
Director
"Flights…One of the most import ports in Spain. People… Antxo, Donibane, San Pedro. Homes with tradition, parties, streets, port workers, women salting fish, mending fishing nets…" Javier Aguirre
