Friday April 12, 7:00 p.m. Audience. PRESENTATION AND DEBATE with Jara Yáñez, art historian, critic and director of Caimán Cuadernos de Cine.

“It is not an epic work, neither nostalgic nor demystifying. (…) But it has aroma, essences. (…) an anomaly in the billboards of our time. (…) a breath of fresh air necessary for our cinephile breathing.”

Jordi Batlle Caminal, La Vanguardia Newspaper

“Hill gives us (…) a return to the classic Western (…) He exalts the austere iconography of the B Series of gun, hat and horse, reaching limits of representative purification that are truly shocking today. (… ) Score: ★★★★ (out of 5)”

Antonio Trashorras, Frames
