CGiii Comment

A dauntless film director, an enfant terrible in his early days, confrontational with censorship, always pushing the boundaries of freedom of expression, chronicler of the darkest corners of the transition, De la Iglesia will fall into the clutches of drug addiction, being forgotten and sometimes repudiated for more than a decade before eventually shaking off the ostracism to make films once again, that habit he could never kick.


Un director de cine valiente, un "enfant terrible" en sus inicios, combativo contra la censura, buscando siempre los límites de la libertad de expresión, cronista de la parte más oscura de la transición, caerá en los infiernos de la drogadicción y durante más de una década será olvidado y en ocasiones repudiado, pero logrará salir del ostracismo para volver a hacer cine, esa adicción de la que jamás pudo desengancharse.
