Synopsis

A hypnotic portrait of the Francisco Franco Labor University of Tarragona, this film invokes historical memory through careful formal minimalism. An architectural, cinematographic and political reflection that evokes the rigidity of the regime's systems for educational indoctrination. (RS)
