Barcelona School of Film

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This Source

The Barcelona School was a 1960s group of Catalan filmmakers, concerned with the disruption of daily life by the unexpected, whose stylistic affinities lie with the pop art movement of the same years. The most important representative of the Barcelona School of Film was Vicente Aranda with his film Fata Morgana (1965).

From the so-called Escuela de Barcelona, originally more experimentalist and cosmopolitan, come Vicente Aranda, Jaime Camino, and Gonzalo Suárez, who made their master works in the 1980s.
