El 47 (The 47), 2024, directed by Marcel BarrenaSet in the late 1970s, this film celebrates real-life bus driver Manolo Vital, who performed an act of civil disobedience for his own working-class neighborhood. Tired of the Barcelona City Council claiming that public transportation couldn’t reach the impoverished area of Torre Baró because its streets were too narrow and unsafe, Manolo hijacks his own bus, “el 47,” and reroutes it to prove the authorities wrong. El 47 received the awards for Best Film, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Supporting Actress at the 39th Goya Awards.
Spanish Cinema Now+ “Premios Goya” showcases contemporary Spanish cinema by screening three films recognized at the 39th Goya Awards. The series was organized by the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in Washington, DC, the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID), and the Spanish Film Academy, and is presented in Dallas by the Meadows Museum in collaboration with Dallas Film.
