Dime quién era Sanchicorrota
Jorge Tur, Spain, 2013, 63'
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s the legend of Sanchicorrota, a 15th century bandit who robbed from the rich to give to the poor. The quest of his traces and lost memory navigates between history and myth. The findings? No small thing: shepherds, sheeps, hunters, film sets, a military base, and the painful memory of recent Spanish history in a lost cabin in the middle of the Bardenas desert.
