Películas

Inauguración Exposición Nacional de Valencia y festejo militar
Director
Spanish short documentary about the National Exhibition of Valencia.
Benítez quiere ser torero
Director

El ciego de la aldea
Director
It is an early example of the rural melodramas that were going to be popular in Spain, with situations that Bunuel will enjoy subverting. The outside locations have probably not been modified and therefore present an interesting reflection of the rural Spain around Valencia. The blind man of the title is not central character of the narrative, a nice twist.
