NO-DO. The World of Yesterday. Image and Propaganda of the Franco Regime

At the heart of Madrid, the Spanish Film Archive delves into the shadow of the Franco regime with “NO-DO. The World of Yesterday.” This unprecedented exhibition explores the regime’s official cinematographic newsreel, a fascinating and controversial propaganda tool. Created in 1943, NO-DO shaped the image of Spain for decades, broadcasting carefully selected excerpts from films and reports. The exhibition deconstructs the mechanisms of this manipulation of information, revealing how the image was used to project an ideological vision. Through archival documents, posters, and films, it offers a unique perspective on Spanish history and the power of the image. Completely free, this exhibition is an essential testimony of the era and a reflection on the manipulation of information. Visit it until July 26, 2026!
