EL NOSTRE PA DE CADA DIA
Year1950 Duration11 min. DirectorJoan Blanquer i Panadès, Ramón Bardés i Abellà WriterJoan Blanquer i Panadès
One of the cursed titles of Catalan amateur film, El nostre pa de cada dia was shot in 1950 by Joan Blanquer (script and direction) and Ramon Bardés (camera). It is a “neo-realist essay” with a light plot and heavy social denunciation. The camera follows a hungry boy in a cave area inhabited by post-war immigrants coming to Sabadell. A car of the buoyant local industrial bourgeoisie of the times triggers the drama just before the end.
