1 show for this event

Two young boys struggling with self-discovery fall in love while their small village in the mountains is ravaged by the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s. In 1968, thirty years later, came the moment of truth about the Francoist informant responsible for the massacre that occurred in their community. The film, which blends historical drama and dreamlike elements, mixes the two time planes with individual and collective stories of a local community that was devastated by fascism and by the shadow of a legend: L’Home dels Nassos (the man of the noses), a mythical character in Catalan folklore who catches children who have a tendency to tell lies.
