Velasco Broca directed "La Costra Láctea" in 2002, as the result of an institutional assignment to develop a sexual education video for teenagers. The film, mixing fokloric Spain with fetishism and aliens, was ultimately not approved as educational material and ended up being broadcast in TVE's La 2, in the show Versión Española, with Bigas Luna's feature "Bilbao".
The story tells of an extraterrestrial invasion in which the aliens kidnap bodybuilders for reasons that escape our understanding.

This 1957 Romanian short animation and Cannes Film Festival winner skilfully and with incredible artistic expression manages to condense the entire narrative of human evolutionary theory into a ten minute short film.

As with so many early films by Sokurov, this film has two dates: the first is the date of its creation (the film was then banned), the second is the date of the final edition and legal public screening. The film consists of German and Soviet archive footage of the World War II — to be exact, from the end of the war. An attempt to make a large–scale documentary on this subject had been undertaken in the Soviet cinema of the 1960s: the film — “Ordinary Fascism” — by the outstanding Soviet film–maker Mikhail Romm had become a classic retrospective investigation of fascism. But Sokurov uses the expressive power of the documentary image in an absolutely different way. He does not amass materials for a large–scale picture of Nazi crimes.
