LOST CHILDHOOD AND FREEDOM IN MOVIES ABOUT THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the presentation of children’s lives and the con- sequences of the Spanish Civil War in the film achievements of Spanish cinema. The corpus material consists of the films The Language of Butterflies (La lengua de las mariposas) and Black Bread (Pan negro) in which children interpret the roles of the protagonists. Taking into account the consequences that almost every war brings with it, we want to examine the extent to which children in Spain were deprived of a normal childhood and freedom at that time. Based on the analyzed scenes, we will show the gradational change of children from innocent victims of war to brave fight- ers for their own ideals. A peaceful and happy childhood was replaced by growing up and maturing prematurely, and the consequences of the war remained present in the years after this horrific event.
