Abstract

«Considerations Concerning The Spanish Documentary Genre in Franco’s Regime». The Documentary Cinema has been a genre that, in spite of the scanty diffusion that it has had in the past, had a wide development in our cinematographical production. Mainly because of the NO-DO, that carried into screen a special way of doing the documentaries in Spain. This trend will be continued to a great extent by numerous private producers who follow such guidelines in search of benefits derived from the cinematographic Administration.
