Ever wondered why Lorca exerts such a powerful hold on the cultural imagination? Well, ‘Lorca on Film’ offers a few answers in a cinematic journey that moves from Granada to Paris and from surrealism to the biopic, in presenting a unique perspective into the life, death and work of one of Spain’s most celebrated writers.
