DEPRISA, DEPRISA (FASTER, FASTER!)
dir. Carlos Saura, 1981
Spain. 99 min.
In Spanish with English subtitles.

DEPRISA, DEPRISA (1981) traces the burgeoning romance between Pablo, a disaffected teenage thief, and Angela, an intrepid young bartender, against a life of crime. Directed by the recently deceased Carlos Saura — whose films perceptively embodied the latent frustration pervasive across Spain during its transition to democracy — DEPRISA, DEPRISA won the Golden Bear at the 1981 Berlinale, and stands out as one of the master-filmmaker’s most down-to-earth and affecting works. The flamenco soundtrack serves as the driving force of the film, with exciting scenes to the rhythm of artists such as Lole y Manuel and Los Chunguitos.
