BARDEM AND CRUZ
A RETROSPECTIVE ON JAVIER BARDEM AND PENELOPE CRUZ
In recent years Spanish cinema has achieved a new economic and cultural prominence, both nationally and internationally. This began with Pedro Almodóvar’s colourful comedies of the eighties, but became a fully blown renaissance with the new wave of Spanish fi lmmakers that came out of the nineties, including Fernando Trueba, Icíar Bollaín, Alex de Ia Iglesia, Bigas Luna, Alejandro Amenábar and Julio Medem. This, in
no small part, is attributable to a cinema that has embraced modernity over tradition, with its emphasis on youth, fast paced editing and genre. Crucially, Spanish cinema has benefi ted from the availability of an exceptionally talented pool of stars, many of whom have had flirtations with mainstream Hollywood, such as Carmen Maura, Victoria Abril, Antonio Banderas and the subjects of this brief retrospective, Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz.
By tracking the careers of the hyper-masculine Bardem and the sensuous Cruz ,who both shot to fame in 1992 with the release of Bigas Luna’s deliciously sardonic celebration of Spanish machismo Jamón, jamón, we are able also to track the
development and maturity of contemporary Spanish cinema, representations of national identity and gender, and the infl uence of Spanish artists on mainstream Hollywood.
Programmed in association with and based on an original idea by Sandra Franco and
Carlos Redondo of CinemaAttic.

EDIMBURGO SE VISTE DE ESPAÑA
MORE THAN A RETROSPECTIVE ON SPANISH CINEMA
Entre el 26 de Septiembre y el 11 de Octubre de 2009 el colectivo cultural CinemaAttic presenta, con el apoyo del Consulado General de España en Edimburgo y la colaboración de la Filmhouse y la National Gallery of Scotland, el ciclo ‛MORE THAN A RETROSPECTIVE ON SPANISH CINEMA’ que mediante dos eventos principales, ‛SPANISHNESS AND CINEMA’ y ‛BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE’, dará cuenta del pasado, la evolución y el presente de la creatividad audiovisual española y su papel dentro y fuera de sus fronteras, a través de largometrajes y cortometrajes de ficción, documentales, y animación, así como una selección de lo último en videoarte y videoclip.
SPANISHNESS AND CINEMA
Una retrospectiva de Javier Bardem y Penélope Cruz.
Tomando como eje central el cruce de trayectorias de dos de los artistas más reconocidos del momento, la Filmhouse de Edimburgo proyectará desde el 26 de Septiembre hasta el 5 de Octubre un ciclo de 8 largometrajes en torno a las carreras de Bardem y Cruz, desde su debut en común en 1992, año de eclosión cultural en España, hasta su última aparición conjunta en la pantalla, reflexionando acerca de la evolución del papel de la cultura española y el concepto de hispanidad, dentro y fuera de sus fronteras.
Partiendo de la poderosa iconografía de ‛Jamón, Jamón’, pasando por el carácter hitchcockiano de ‘Carne Trémula’, llegaremos a los trabajos internacionales más reconocidos como la oscarizada ‘No Country for Old Men’ para cerrar el ciclo con ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ que vuelve a reunirles en 2008.
BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE
Nuevos creadores audiovisuales españoles.
Paralelamente y hasta el 11 de Octubre, una selección de obras audiovisuales de reputados realizadores y creadores emergentes, completará la programación de una muestra que ofrecerá una treintena de cortometrajes, varios documentales, piezas de animación, así como una selección de videoarte y videoclip, en diversos espacios culturales aún por confirmar, así como en la National Gallery of Scotland que albergará algunas proyecciones como evento paralelo dentro de la exposición ‛The Discovery of Spain’, tratando de ofrecer una visión completa y sorprendente de la cultura española actual a través de reconocidos realizadores y nuevos talentos en colaboración con CQTC Branding Talent.

BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE
Nuevos creadores audiovisuales españoles.
Documentales, cortometrajes de ficción y animación, videoarte y videoclip español serán proyectados en diferentes espacios culturales de Edimburgo entre el 26 de Septiembre y el 11 de Octubre, reuniendo piezas de alto contenido artístico junto a otras de marcado carácter social realizadas en los últimos años.
La particular visión de la familia, el amor, la infancia, los conflictos sociales, el humor, la tragedia, la ficción y la realidad más cruda se darán cita en esta muestra audiovisual de la mano de autores con trayectorias y estilos de lo más diverso.
En el apartado documental encontraremos dos largometrajes, ‛Lucio’ y ‛Nadar’, que indagarán sobre los años de la postguerra civil española a través de dos historias muy personales, y varios cortometrajes como ‛El Hombre Feliz’ y ‛Héroes’, ambos premiados con el Goya en 2008 y 2009 respectivamente, ‛Debajo de sus faldas’, una denuncia contra la brutal práctica de la ablación femenina, o centrados en la precaria situación de la infancia en los casos de ‛Asämara’ y ‛Harraga’, ante los que nadie permanecerá indiferente.
En el bloque de cortometrajes de ficción, la variedad temática y formal viene de la mano de piezas tan aclamadas como ‛Contracuerpo’ o ‛Alumbramiento’, premiado con el UIP al Mejor Cortometraje Europeo en la 64ª Mostra di Venezia, ambas de Eduardo Chapero-Jackson, ‛Miente’ de Isabel de Ocampo, premiado con el Goya 2009, o ‛El ataque de los Robots de Nebulosa-5’ de Chema García Ibarra, con una mención especial en el Sundance Festival 2009, junto a la ironía de los imprescindibles Borja Cobeaga y Daniel Sánchez Arévalo, o la luz de Pedro Touceda y Laura Sipán, entre otras deliciosas joyas por descubrir.
La animación tendrá su hueco a través de varias creaciones que sorprenden por la juventud de sus autores y la calidad del resultado, encontrando desde trabajos en 2D y 3D con tintes de animación tradicional hasta lo último en stop-motion o animación en arena.
Una vanguardista selección de videoarte y videoclip será exhibida como evento paralelo dentro de la exposición ‛The Discovery of Spain’ que acoge la National Gallery of Scotland, gracias a la colaboración con el Óptica Festival de Madrid y Nanouk Films.
Por último, tratando de facilitar un espacio de intercambio entre nuevos talentos de uno y otro lado y en colaboración con CQTC Branding Talent, serán también proyectados algunos trabajos de estudiantes de cine de escuelas nacionales, como la ECAM de Madrid, e internacionales, como la New York Film Academy o el Edinburgh College of Art, así como de otros autodidactas de diversa procedencia.

EDINBURGH WEARS SPANISHNESS
MORE THAN A RETROSPECTIVE ON SPANISH CINEMA
Between 26th September and 11th October, the cultural collective CinemaAttic will present, with the support of the Spanish Consulate General in Edinburgh and in collaboration with the Filmhouse and the National Gallery of Scotland, the programme ‛MORE THAN A RETROSPECTIVE ON SPANISH CINEMA’. Two main events, ‛SPANISHNESS AND CINEMA’ and ‛BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE’, will help to provide insight into the past and present of Spanish audiovisual creative works. It will also help to understand the role of the Spanish cinematic industry both within the national borders and abroad thanks to the screening of feature full and short length films as well as documentaries, animation movies and a selection of the latest in video art and video clip.
SPANISHNESS AND CINEMA
A retrospective on Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem.
Taking the crossing of their careers as the main core, Edinburgh’s Filmhouse will screen between 26th September and 5th October a season of 8 films with two of the most recognized artists today, Bardem and Cruz, since their common debut in 1992 until the last movie in which they appear together. The aim of this retrospective is to reflect on the evolution of the role of the Spanish culture, the concept of Spanishness within and beyond its borders.
Starting with the powerful iconography of ‘Jamón, Jamón’ we will then move on to other important works such as the Hitchcock-like character of ‘Carne Tremula’ (‛Live flesh’)or the Oscar winning ‘No country for Old Men’ and put an end with ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ in which they reunited again in 2008.
BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE
Newly acclaimed Spanish creators.
Simultaneously and until the 11th October, a selection of media works by renowned artists and emerging creators will complete the program of a showcase that will include about thirty short films, several documentaries, animation works as well as a selection of video art and video clip. This will take place in several cultural venues still to be confirmed as well as in the National Gallery of Scotland which will host some of the screenings as a parallel event within the exhibition ‘The Discovery of Spain’, thus trying to offer a comprehensive and surprising vision of the Spanish culture today through the works of reputed artists and new talents.
Definitive program and events calendar will be available from 1st September on:

BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE
Newly acclaimed Spanish creators.
Spanish documentaries, fiction and animation short-films, video art and video clips will be shown between 26th September and 11th October, in a compilation of both great artistic value and strong social character.
This will be a great opportunity to explore the particular take on issues such as the family, love, childhood, social conflicts, humour, tragedy, fiction and cruel reality by a number of today’s creators, coming from different backgrounds.
In the documentary category we will find two features, ‛Lucio’ and ‛Nadar’ (‛Swim’) which deal with the post-civil war years through both personal stories. It will also include some other short documentaries such as ‛El hombre feliz’ (‛The happy man’) and ‛Heroes’ both awarded with the Spanish Film Academy Goya in 2008 and 2009; ‛Debajo de sus faldas’ (‛Under their skirts’) a reflection on the brutal practise of feminine genital ablation, or the precarious situation of children in both ‛Asämara’ and ‛Harraga’.
In fiction short films, the variety in themes and format will become obvious with greatly acclaimed pieces such as ‘Contracuerpo’ or ‘Alumbramiento’, UIP Prize for Best European Short Film in the 64th Mostra di Venezia, both by Eduardo Chapero-Jackson; ‘Miente’ (‛She lies’) by Isabel de Ocampo awarded with the Spanish Film Academy Goya 2009; or ‘El ataque de los Robots de Nebulosa-5’ (‛The attack of the Robots from Nebula-5’) by Chema García Ibarra, which obtained a special mention in Sundance Festival 2009. Also we will have the opportunity to enjoy the ironic works of Borja Cobeaga and Daniel Sánchez Arévalo and the fantastic light in the works of Pedro Touceda and Laura Sipán, among other great pieces.
The animation category is short but full of surprising creations where young and talented animators display high quality results, using 2D and 3D techniques with traditional appearance, also stop-motion and sand-animation.
An avant-garde selection of video art and video clip will be shown into the parallel events of the National Gallery of Scotland exhibition’s ‘The Discovey of Spain’, thanks to the collaboration with Optica Festival from Madrid and Nanouk Films.
Finally a branch of new talents will show, in collaboration with CQTC Branding Talent, a selection of projects made in some national and international film schools, such as the ECAM from Madrid, the New York Film Academy or the Edinburgh College of Art, in addition to some self-taught filmmakers from different origins.
Between 26th September and 11th October, the cultural collective CinemaAttic will present, with the support of the Spanish Consulate General in Edinburgh and in collaboration with the Filmhouse and the National Gallery of Scotland, the programme ‛MORE THAN A RETROSPECTIVE ON SPANISH CINEMA’. Two main events, ‛SPANISHNESS AND CINEMA’ and ‛BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE’, will help to provide insight into the past and present of Spanish audiovisual creative works. It will also help to understand the role of the Spanish cinematic industry both within the national borders and abroad thanks to the screening of feature full and short length films as well as documentaries, animation movies and a selection of the latest in video art and video clip.
SPANISHNESS AND CINEMA
A retrospective on Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem.
Taking the crossing of their careers as the main core, Edinburgh’s Filmhouse will screen between 26th September and 5th October a season of 8 films with two of the most recognized artists today, Bardem and Cruz, since their common debut in 1992 until the last movie in which they appear together. The aim of this retrospective is to reflect on the evolution of the role of the Spanish culture, the concept of Spanishness within and beyond its borders.
Starting with the powerful iconography of ‘Jamón, Jamón’ we will then move on to other important works such as the Hitchcock-like character of ‘Carne Tremula’ (‛Live flesh’)or the Oscar winning ‘No country for Old Men’ and put an end with ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ in which they reunited again in 2008.
BEYOND A VISUAL SHOWCASE
Newly acclaimed Spanish creators.
Simultaneously and until the 11th October, a selection of media works by renowned artists and emerging creators will complete the program of a showcase that will include about thirty short films, several documentaries, animation works as well as a selection of video art and video clip. This will take place in several cultural venues still to be confirmed as well as in the National Gallery of Scotland which will host some of the screenings as a parallel event within the exhibition ‘The Discovery of Spain’, thus trying to offer a comprehensive and surprising vision of the Spanish culture today through the works of reputed artists and new talents.
