### **ABOUT THE FILM:** *In Spanish with English subtitles.* Banned in Francisco Franco’s Spain and denounced by the Vatican upon its premiere, Luis Buñuel’s irreverent vision of life as a beggar’s banquet is regarded by many as his masterpiece. In it, novice nun Viridiana (Silvia Pinal) does her utmost to maintain her Catholic principles, but her lecherous uncle (Fernando Rey) and a motley assemblage of paupers force her to confront the limits of her idealism. Winner of the Palme d’Or at the 1961 Cannes Film Festival, VIRIDIANA is as audacious today as ever. FORMAT: DCP DISTRIBUTOR: Janus Films COUNTRY: Spain/Mexico
