What’s being screened
«Tigres de paper» (1977), directed by Fernando Colomo, is one of the emblematic films of Spanish Transition cinema. The film portrays a group of young people from Madrid in the 1970s with irony and tenderness, exploring their hopes, disillusions, and search for identity in a Spain undergoing transformation. Shot as a dramatic comedy, it combines sharp dialogue with a soundtrack that captures the era, becoming a generational portrait that transcends its historical context.
