Film, Memory and the Legacy of the Spanish Civil War reconstructs
the legacy of the Spanish Civil War through an investigation of the
anti-Franco guerrilla of the 1940s and 1950s. The book explores the
memory of Spanish resistance fighters and their civilian
supporters, concentrating on their cinematic representations in
films and documentaries released between 1953 and 2010. This
research fits within the emerging comparative field of Memory
Studies, which has grown considerably in the last two decades.
Along those lines, the efforts of civil society to understand and
come to terms with the past have gathered momentum in twenty-first
century Spain. One visible outcome of this determination has been
the recovery of corpses from unmarked graves, which has been
accompanied by a renewed interest in the cultural, historical,
legal and archaeological traces of the millions who suffered under
Franco's protracted dictatorship. This book sheds light especially
on the silent roles played by women and children in the struggle
against fascism.
