THEATER (ROCKEFELLER PLAZA) Puntual a la ata, un año más, el "Festival de Cine Español" se presenta en Nueva York, como una embajada de la cinematografía de nuestro país. Este año hemos ampliado hasta catorce el número de películas que se proyectarán. Catorce títulos de un año de producción, sobre un total de sesenta, constituyen, en mi opinión, una muestra muy representativa de la temporada cinematográfíca española 198&87. Una temporada que me atrevo a calificar de esperanzadora en el difícil pero interesante y personal camino que el cine español está recorriendo desde la instauración de la libertad creadora1. Un camino que no ha sido fácil de recorrer, y en el que nuestro cine ha emprendido la dura tarea de reencontrarse a sí mismo, abiertamente, decididamente, después de tantos años de ambigüedad, de falsas y tortuosas fórmulas. Pocas artes como la cinematografía son capaces de reflejar en forma tan puntual la idiosincrasia de un país, su problemática sociopolítica, su cultura. Yo espero que esta películas que hoy ofrecemos puedan acercarles a la imagen de una nación que intenta mostrar al mundo su capacidad creadora, sus valores artísticos, que, enraizados en el pasado, pretenden integrarse, con personalidad propia, en el conjunto universal de búsqueda de nuevas formas. JAVIER SOLANA MADARIAGA Ministro de Cultura IV Once again, for the third time in recent years, we are pleased to present the Festival of Films from Spain in Flew York, representing a kind of embassy of the motion picture industry from our country.

A Vindication of the Spanish Mother. Maternal Images in the Filmic Make-over of the Nation Abstract The maternal figure as an explicit or oblique image of the Spanish nation has undergone a good share of indignities throughout the modern cultural history of the country, from the nineteenth-century Mater Dolorosa to the stepmother of those forced into exile after the civil war, from the terrible matriarchs of Benito Peréz Galdós, Federico Garcia Lorca and Camilo José Cela to the patriarchal mothers of Spanish oppositional cinema in the final phase of the dictatorship and first years of the democratic transition.
