MEMMORTIGO?
Year1934 Duration16 min. DirectorDelmiro de Caralt
A man wearing dark clothes and a sad countenance tries to commit suicide in a variety of ways but fails in all ridiculous attempts. This film, resembling the mildest surrealist movies of the 1920s, might look naïve today. However, it oozes a powerful passion for life.
Delmiro de Caralt
Delmiro De Caralt (Barcelona, 1901-1990) was the man who introduced amateur film in Spain in the 1920s. In 1924, he established the Film Library, now named after him. A staunch advocate of independent and experimental films, De Caralt was always thinking of solutions for the technical problems of filmmaking.
