Paperezko hegoak
Cinematography
How did the operation against 'Euskaldunon Egunkaria' come about? Why did the Spanish state decide to attack it? What did they hope to achieve by arresting, torturing and publicly humiliating known and prestigious people in the field of Basque cultural activity? This documentary tries to find answers to these questions, focussing on the different keys and factors of the period.
God Doesn't Forgive Me
Cinematography
Lezo Urreiztieta was a 16th-century pirate, born by mistake in 1907. Risking his life, he saved that of hundreds of people; he negotiated with foreign governments for a free Basque Country; he managed to slip 17 boats full of weapons into Bilbao during the Civil War; he was on the point of killing Franco... Forty years after his death, the tape recorder of writer Martin Ugalde reveals his incredible story told in the voice of the actual protagonist. Starting with unpublished conversations between the two held from 1975 to 1978, this film sheds light on the testimony of a key character in 20th century Basque history.
Gure Sor Lekuaren bila
Cinematography
Hasparren, 1956. Amid great expectation, a documentary in the Basque language about the Basque Country was released in the local cinema. In the following months it was screened in other Basque and French towns on both sides of the border, and even in Paris, San Francisco and Dakar. But suddenly it disappeared from sight and everyone forgot about it. Sixty years later, filmmaker Josu Martinez sets out to find it.
Apple Time
Cinematography
Kristiane Etxaluz, from Soule, and Alfonso Etxegarai, from Bizkaia, are not your usual couple. Committed since their youth to the Basque independence struggle, they are condemned to living their love 7,000 km from one another due to the fact that Alfonso lives on the small African island to which he was deported several years ago. However, despite the banishment, their eyes always follow the country of the Bidasoa and their hearts at apple time; an apple time still to come.
