In 1938, in the midst of the Spanish Civil War, Germany invites a group of Spanish filmmakers to Berlin. The German Minister of Propaganda under Hitler welcomes them with open arms, if only to get in the good graces of Spanish leading lady Macarena Granada (Penélope Cruz). Their situation becomes even more uncomfortable when the only Andalusian-looking extras they can find for their film are the prisoners in a neighboring concentration camp . An Award-winning film by Spanish Director Fernando Trueba.
