9/10
This is a great film, but for understanding its necessary to have some basic knowledge of the Francisco Franco's government(do some research, I'm not an expert to post good enough historical info). The film deals with the oppressive, military and authoritarian government of Franco (represented by Jose)and the religion-fanaticism of Spanish society (Fernando).(i, yet, have not figured out what represents the last brother, but i've only seen it once). Fans of Federico Garcia Lorca might like this movie for being in the same historical context, also film-art fans should like this. Great movie, watch it if you can find it.
