🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its narrative by unprecedentedly blending two forms: staged drama and direct newsreel. It relies on the immediacy of the tragic event to create a visceral response, documenting a nation's shock.

What lingers after viewing is the raw power of early cinema to frame history, where reconstruction and reality collide to create a palpable sense of witness. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Adelardo Fernández Arias
