Apaiz kartzela

A quiet, reflective documentary that revisits painful memories with dignity, offering a sobering look at repression and resilience.

Overview: A real voyage in an apparently unreal situation. Four priests incarcerated in Zamora's prison for priests (1968-1976) return to visit the jail where they were condemned, in some cases, to sentences of more than ten years for having given sermons in which they denounced the repression under Franco.
How it feels: Melancholic, earnest and tense. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Faith, justice, power, memory
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
