Jon Garaño, Aitor Arregi and Jose Mari Goenaga have created what is surely the perfect post-civil-war movieVictor Esquirol, GARA

 

Moving restraint, enthralling in its historical scope and intimacy, ‘La trinchera infinita’ is a new technical, narrative and emotional feat from the team behind ‘Handia’Ricardo Aldarondo, DIARIO VASCO

Belén Cuesta’s nuanced performance is splendidCarlos Boyero, EL PAÍS

Ambitious, combative and well shot (…) Hend Sabri is as powerful and forceful as the great women of filmBegoña del Teso, DIARIO VASCO

(Izibene Oñederra) once again makes our jaws drop with a highly characterful workMikel G. Gurpegui, DIARIO VASCO

Filmed in a highly natural, analogue, grainy way. It’s nocturnal, pure burlesque and underground ‘boylesque’ activism, all the way to the fake eyelashes and platinum wigsBegoña del Teso, DIARIO VASCO
