{es} Las Hurdes: Tierra Sin Pan / {en} Land Without Bread [1] (Spain, 1933), a film/documentary directed by Luis Buñuel.
After his collaboration with Salvador Dalí on Un chien Andalou (1929) and the anticlerical satire L’Age d’Or (1930), Luis Buñuel produced this documentary short, highlighting the struggles of the impoverished rural communities of Spain’s Las Hurdes region. The film is shocking in its portrayal of abject poverty, but also attracted attention for dramatising certain scenes and passing them off as documentary. Nevertheless, the film led to significant changes being introduced in the region. Stylistically, Land Without Bread presages Buñuel’s acclaimed Los Olvidados (1950), a portrait of life in the slums of Mexico City.
Produced in Spain, the film was originally silent, though Buñuel himself narrated when it was first shown in Spain in December 1933. A French narration by actor Abel Jacquin was added in Paris in 1935. Buñuel used extracts of Johannes Brahms' Symphony No. 4 for the music.
