Longa Noite
Endless Night
Eloy Enciso
A few years after the Civil War was over, Anxo returns to his home village in the Galician countryside. Through casual conversations along his trip, he discovers how war and the new regime have transformed the relationships among people. Once at home, he is greeted with concern by the victorious, but also by the defeated ones, who see in Anxo the challenge to start a journey to the past and their silenced memories. Excerpts from plays, memoirs and letters from the Franco regime serve as inspiration for Longa noite, a film exploring the social and political foundations of fascism.
