In 1920s Spain, renowned matador Antonio Villalta prepares
to go into the ring while his pregnant wife, the saintly Carmen de
Triana, watches in anticipation. As her husband suffers a goring, Carmen
goes into childbirth, unleashing a series of tragic events that have
long-lasting consequences for the family. Taking its inspiration from
the Brothers' Grimm story, Pablo Berger offers a gothic, black &
white treatment of the myth of Snow White. A silent melodrama with a
suitably malevolent villain, a chorus of enterprising dwarfs, a
resourceful heroine and sumptuous production design, Blancanieves offers
a sensory journey into a mythical and cinematic past.
A documentary that details the creation of Julian

breach in U.S. history.
