Hortensia/Béance

Hortensia/Béance
Antonio Maenza
1969

The explosive filming Hortensia/Béance takes place in a community environment, implemented in a bourgeois style mansion in Barcelona. The shooting stopped abruptly when the team was expelled from the house, place of living and filming for several months. The experience conceived by the filmmaker as a political and revolutionary act has been described by some participants as a situation of chaos and tension. From this experience a copy of nearly four hours was obtained. An unfinished work.
