Carlos Saura

Carlos Saura was born in Huesca in 1932. Passionate about photography, he gave up engineering studies for the film institute in Madrid, from which he graduated in directing, and shot his first documentary short films in 1955. His first feature film was presented at Cannes in 1960; he then adopted a cinema of metaphors and symbols to outwit the censors, and in 1966 received the Silver Bear in Berlin. In the eighties, he united drama and flamenco dance in a trilogy. A photographer and writer, he died in 2023.
