And there’s also space for a nod towards the pioneers of our recent past. Gaur irekiko ditut ateak, by Eriz Zapirain (Gazta zati bat), recovers the adventure of the creation of “Egunkaria”, first daily newspaper in the Basque language, closed down by the Spanish High Court in 2003. Iratxe Fresneda, Professor of Audiovisual Communication at the University of the Basque Country, takes a detailed look in her first film, Irrintziaren oiartzunak (Echoing Calls), at the work of filmmaker Mirentxu Loyarte, author of Irrintzi, a daring cinematic exercise in 1978. Finally, in Quinta Planta (Fifth Plant), part of the project on the subject of President Aguirre, Mikel Rueda portrays Jon, a young idealist in the New York of the 60s.
