Bienvenido, Míster Marshall [Welcome Mr Marshall]

The small village of Villar del Río is awaiting the song performance of Carmen Vargas, 'The Great Andalusian Star'. The quiet village is governed by a deaf, naughty and good-natured Mayor, who only wants to enliven the place. At the same time, good news comes to the village: the arrival of North American high personalities that will give economic aid to the nation city by city, village by village. The Mayor doesn't know what to do to welcome them. Carmen Vargas's agent throws surprising initiatives, moving all the village people just to prepare a better reception for the foreigners. His idea is to disguise all the farmers as Andalusians and add colour to every street with typical decorations. All of them start to work, and also to dream and think about what they're going to request from the Americans, who will come with lots of dollars.

The film will be introduced by Professor Andy Willis (University of Salford).
