Altube Filmeak, Urresti Producciones y Allmura Films.
Eloy de la Iglesia: Adicto al cine is a compelling documentary portrait of one of the most radical and controversial figures in Spanish cinema. Directed by Gaizka Urresti, the film revisits the life and work of Eloy de la Iglesia, a filmmaker whose uncompromising films confronted social taboos and political realities during Spain’s transition to democracy.
Through archive material, film excerpts, and testimonies from collaborators and critics, the documentary explores De la Iglesia’s fearless engagement with marginalised communities, addiction, sexuality, power, and rebellion, offering both a critical reassessment and a passionate tribute to a singular cinematic voice.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Gaizka Urresti, offering insight into the making of the film and the enduring relevance of De la Iglesia’s work today.
