This thorough account of the life and films of the Spanish-Basque
filmmaker Julio Medem is the first book in English on the
internationally renowned writer-director of Vacas, La ardilla roja
(Red Squirrel), Tierra, Los amantes del Circulo Polar (Lovers of
the Arctic Circle), Lucia y el sexo (Sex and Lucia), La pelota
vasca: la piel contra la piedra (Basque Ball) and Caotica Ana
(Chaotic Ana), Initial chapters explore Medem's childhood,
adolescence and education and examine his earliest short films and
critical writings against a background of a dramatically changing
Spain. Later chapters provide accounts of the genesis, production
and release of Medem's challenging and sensual films, which feed
into complex but lucid analyses of their meanings, both political
and personal, in which Stone draws on traditions and innovations in
Basque art, Spanish cinema and European philosophy to create a
complete and provocative portrait of Medem and his work. -- .
