DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Pedro Almodóvar Spain

While from Castilla-La Mancha, his films frequently explore Spanish regional identity and have become emblematic of contemporary Spanish cinema, often addressing themes of passion and cultural complexity relevant to understanding Iberian societies including the Basque context.

 Julio Medem Spain

Born in Madrid but deeply rooted in Basque culture through his work, Medem's films like 'Vacas' and 'La ardilla roja' are set in the Basque Country and explore its landscapes, history, and the psychological depths of its people.
