First movie directed by catalan Lluis Galter, is the chronicle the last days of one of the last maquis (guerrilla anti-Franco) named Augustín Vila and known as "Caracremada", nickname and title of the film.
How to develop this work could be called minimalist because it focuses on the methodical work, real effort to sabotage the maquis Caracremada. Much of his presentation takes place in real time, detailing, for example, the way he pylons down, his real specialty, through a rudimentary file.
With great economy of means, with virtually no dialogue, no music, with few players, "Caracremada" represents perfectly the lonely struggle of a idealist confrontation impossible into a whole political system established. The film is a risky and brave work -as the character he portrays- in any business sense and brings the silence to the category of sublime character.
