  • Tierra Sin Pan (1933-1936), Buñuel’s third film, was the first of the only three he made in his country. This film, his only documentary, would clearly influence his anthropological films to come. It could be called a film essay, closely tied to photography of the Las Hurdes region in Spain, its travelogues, journalism and academic studies published in the immediately preceding years. The film was produced by a team of anarchists and surrealists; its audio-visual construction creates a mythical narrative of intense shock value. Censured in 1936 and 1937 in Spain, France and Britain, today it gives us a film view on abstract misery.
