It has been said of Luis García Berlanga that he was one of the best sociologists that Spain has had. Without the need to handle statistical data or tables, he knew how to portray the idiosyncrasies of our country and our leaders like no one else. His cinema has reviewed Spanish history standing up, becoming a subversive filmmaker precisely by having known how to tell the hardships of its inhabitants with large doses of irony and joke.
