Un instante en la vida ajena
2003 · Documentary · 80 min. · Spain
Madronita Andreu was born in Barcelona at the end of the nineteenth century in a wealthy industrial family. From an early age she was fascinated by inventions and machines and that is how she became interested in photography and then the cinema which turned into her great passion. Throughout her life she filmed her family and their environment with great tenacity. She watched the world (her world) through the camera. "A Glimpse of other lives" presents a selection from more than 900 reels of material in 16mm filmed by Madronita Andreu. This is really an autobiography in images, perhaps the first in the history of film-making, which stretches from 1920 to the seventies.
