    Quote:
    Several years after the end of the Spanish Civil War, reticent Anxo returns to the Galician village where he was born. Through casual conversations during his trip, he discovers how war and the new Franco regime have transformed the relationships between people. At home, he is greeted with suspicion by both sides. Voiced in dialogues, and sometimes monologues, are stories about war, fear, captivity, riches, poverty and the importance of freedom. These reflections are based on the memoires of exiled writers, those silenced by defeat and, finally, by political prisoners.Read More »

    Synopsis:
    A village on the border between Galicia and Portugal, hidden deep in the woods, a world out of time. Documentary moments of everyday life stand alongside dramatized scenes acted by the villagers working in the fields, sitting in the pub, singing traditional songs in the local dialect and telling old tales. Scenes of their own lives are interwoven with quotes from the play „O bosque” (The Woods) by the Galician writer Marinhas del Valle, a parable about the Franco dictatorship. When a fire breaks out in the woods, there are growing signs of an impending apocalypse. Arraianos is a film about remembering and the disappearance of a way of life.Read More »
