Now that I have more free time, I have decided to reactivate the Spanish Film Review Club blog. Here is my review of El rei borni (Marc Crehuet, 2016), a Catalan black comedy that criticises the Spanish police's use of rubber bullets.

Es un auténtico honor para mí haber sido invitada por la Hispanic Society of Scotland para compartir una pequeña parte de mi investigación sobre los vestigios de la crisis de 2008 en el cine español. Si te interesa, contacta con [email protected] para reservar.

The best thing about my job is hearing filmmakers talk passionately about their work. Forever grateful to @CinemaAttic for bringing the small miracle that is Los destellos to Scotland, and for facilitating an insightful conversation with Pilar Palomero. Photo: @imurchan
