Geneva, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – The Spanish Civil War ended 60 years ago, and yet it is only today that this European nation is reclaiming the 60,000 dead and approximately 100,000 citizens forced into slave labour resulting from the conflict. “Los Caminos de la Memoria“, screened at the Film Festival and International Forum on Human Rights this week, looks at Spain’s reconciliation process and the nature of historical memory.
In the shadow of extreme violence that marked 20th century Europe, the horrors surrounding the war in Spain are just now being exhumed. With the passage of its “historical memory law” in 2007, the Spanish Government has attempted to initiate a national dialogue regarding a history that was closed to discussion.
“The collective memory of Spain is terrible,” notes one historian interviewed by filmmaker José-Luis Peñafuerte. But he is referring to the troubled and gruesome memories that the country is weighted with, not a poor memory.
