Biography
Carlos Saura is a filmmaker, screenwriter and photographer, as well as being one of the most important figures of modern Spanish cinema, since he began directing in the 1950s, consecrating himself with The Hunt in 1966, winning a Silver Bear at the Berlinale. With more than fifty projects in his filmography, Saura has been honoured with the most prestigious awards of cinema, including the Gold Medal of the Academy of Cinematographic Arts and Sciences of Spain, the Order of Arts and Letters of France, and the Grand Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic. Some of his most emblematic films are Cousin Angelica (1973) and Cría Cuervos (1975), both Special Jury Prize at Cannes, the Oscars’ candidate Mama Turns 100 (1979), ¡Ay, Carmela! (1990), winner of 13 Goya Awards, and Deprisa, deprisa (1981), which received the Golden Bear for Best Film at the Berlinale. Saura’s filmography also includes films dedicated to music and dance, such as the musical trilogy with Antonio Gades, Salomé (2002), Iberia (2005) and Fados (2007); and the documentaries Sevillanas (1992), Flamenco (1994), Tango (1997) and Jota de Saura (2016). He also directed the musical film The King of all the World (2021) and the short film Rosa Rosae. La Guerra Civil.
