The Future of '36

IMDb 8.0, 100 min, Documentary, Belgium

This film offers a deeply personal and emotional exploration of history through the eyes of a young Belgian woman traveling in Spain. By contrasting the 1936 anarcho-syndicalist revolution in Catalonia with mid-century European movements like May ’68, the narrative weaves together her personal heritage and political ideals. It acts as a subjective homage to freedom and utopia, questioning whether the optimistic spirit of 1936 and 1976 can ultimately survive the relentless, demoralizing weight of state power.
