Las autonosuyas

About This Movie

Las autonosuyas is this wacky little comedy from 1983 that dives headfirst into the absurdity of Spain's evolving provinces post-democracy. The film has this chaotic energy, almost like a mismatched ensemble piece, where every region has its own quirks and demands. It’s like a comedic take on a Tower of Babel, where the characters’ interactions are often loud and exaggerated—definitely not subtle. The practical effects are nothing groundbreaking, but they add a certain charm. The pacing is erratic, reflecting the disarray of the times, but it’s part of its odd charm. You can sense the writers' delight in poking fun at political absurdities, which makes it feel quite distinctive in its commentary. A curious watch for anyone into Spanish cinema or political satire.
