In this unique and unforgettable tribute to European silent films, the fairy tale of Snow White is transposed with great effect into the world of bullfighting in 1920s Spain. Beautifully shot in black and white and featuring fabulous flamenco music, a very evil stepmother, and a band of bullfighting dwarves, Blancanieves is a magical retelling of a classic story, a story set in a romantic vision of 1920s Andalusia. Director Pablo Berger calls it a “love letter to European silent cinema.”
