We Were a Great Family

Overview

Miquelina, Josep and, later, their son Pattet filmed their lives between 1942 and 1999 with no purpose other than creating memories for the future. Without realizing it, they captured a face of the 20th century through the everyday life of a family close to the powers of the State, as a counterpoint to the country’s reality and the postwar period. A camera passed from hand to hand, a dictatorship transforming into a democracy, and images filled with aspirations, contradictions, and dreams of change.
