On this day in history, April 26, 1937, Spanish nationalists called on Nazi and Italian Fascist forces to bomb the Basque town of Guernica. The horrors of the bombing led Pablo Picasso to create perhaps his greatest work, “Guernica”: a massive painting powerfully representing the horrors of war.
Restored and digitized, GUERNICA, a short film by Robert Hessens and Alain Resnais, spotlights details of the painting over a frenzied and disturbing score.

Co-directed by Ruth Zylberman (The Children of 209 Saint-Maur Street) and Mosco Boucault. Watch a clip from 23 FOREIGNERS — OUR BROTHERS, now available to rent on Icarus Films On Demand. More info: icarusfilms.com/if-23for

In the film we meet seven surviving comrades of the executed resistance members.
