Description

This short documentary explores the filmmaking process behind Ambel (2014), a historical drama directed by José María López Oñate. The film tells the story of Martín de Ambel, a 17th-century nobleman who, after a duel of honor in which he kills the town’s Chief Constable, Don Alonso de Góngora, is forced to take refuge for more than 30 years in the Church of La Concepción to preserve his life.
