Scope and content
In 1938, the novelist, intellectual and politician André Malraux directed his only film, ‘Espoir/Sierra de Teruel' , a valuable testimony to the experiences of the Republicans during the Spanish Civil War. Shot in Barcelona and Montserrat, the film was banned during Franco's dictatorship and was not released in Spain until 1978. The film looks at the vicissitudes of a large group of Republican fighters, and their determination to stop the advance of the Fascist troops by blowing up a bridge on the Zaragoza road, near the town of Linás. In close collaboration with local farmers, the squad of soldiers try to keep their spirits up and manage to get through the non-stop bombings and the harsh, continuous attacks of their powerful enemy.
