IDENTITY MEMORY THE REPUBLICAN EXILE Movie Trailer HD - Plot synopsis: “Those who forget are destined to lose everything.” Fifty years after Franco’s death in Spain, descendants of Spanish exiles reconstruct the odyssey their relatives faced when fleeing Franco’s dictatorship for Mexico — making memory an act of resistance as authoritarianism resurges worldwide.
Narrated from the perspective of Argentine–Armenian director Facundo Cantelmi, drawing on his own family history of exile, 'IDENTITY & MEMORY: THE REPUBLICAN EXILE' reflects on historical memory, the suffering and uprooting of exile, and the need to keep that connection alive.
Estimated release: 2026
