Synopsis:
Pere Portabella was a great and highly original Spanish filmmaker. His films No compteu amb els dits, Nocturno 29 (Nocturne 29), Vampir–cuadecuc, Umbracle, Pont de Varsòvia (Warsaw Bridge), and Die Stille vor Bach (The Silence Before Bach), have been fundamental links of an alternative and influential film culture. As a producer, we owe him Marco Ferreri’s El cochecito and Buñuel’s Viridiana. Portabella has also been a relevant politician: he was elected senator in the Spanish Constituent Court and his signature is on the 1978 Spanish Constitution.
