SYNOPSIS The Alicante-born Cecilia Bartolomé is a pioneering Spanish film director, screenwriter, and producer. Despite being mistreated by censorship, she maintains, even in her eighties, the free spirit that has always defined her. We will journey with her through the fascinating life, work, and struggle that remain so far, yet so close.
