We are proud to announce that this year's inaugural screening of TerrorMolins will feature the international premiere of the film In The Trap will be accompanied by a pre-screening of the cult surrealist film, Un Chien Andalou, with live music by musician Adrià Bofarull.
Without a doubt, An Andalusian Dog is one of the fundamental films of surrealism, the fruit of the collaboration and boundless imagination of two geniuses like Luis Buñuel i Salvador Dali. Released in 1929, the 21-minute film is a confluence between the dreams of its director Luis Buñuel, a knife that cuts out the eye, and those of the multifaceted artist Salvador Dalí, a hand full of ants.
I love dreams, even if my dreams are nightmares and that is most of the time. They are strewn with obstacles that I know and recognize. This madness for dreams, which I have never tried to explain, is one of the deep inclinations that have brought me closer to surrealism. Un chien Andalou was born from the convergence of one of my dreams with a dream of Dalí.
An Andalusian Dog is the most significant film of surrealism, provoking a moral impact on the viewer through the violence of its images and offering him a journey of no return to the dream world of its director. In it we can see one of the most iconic sequences in the history of cinema, the razor that cuts out a woman's eye. The film is the cinematic beginning of two of the most outstanding artistic careers in the surrealist universe.
We wrote the script in less than a week, following a very simple rule: not accepting any idea or image that could give rise to a rational, psychological or cultural explanation.
In an edition dedicated to The Surrealist Look It is our obligation to screen this cult film with the addition of having a live musician who will accompany, with an original composition, the screening of the film. There can certainly be no better night for this fantastic screening than the opening session of the Festival so that minutes later we can enjoy our inaugural film. In The Trap

We are proud to announce a very special opening session of terrorMolins 2019, with the international premiere of the film In The Trap. The event will include the screening of surrealist cult short film Un Chien Andalou, with live music written and performed by Adrià Bofarull.
There is no doubt that Un Chien Andalou is one of the essential films of surrealism, it was the result of the collaboration and imagination of two geniuses, Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí working along. Premiered in 1929, the 21 minute long film merges the dreams of its director, Luis Buñuel, a razor blade cutting the moon in two, and multilayered artist, Salvador Dalí's ant invaded hand.
“"I adore dreams, although most times my dreams are nightmares. They are full of obstacles which I know and recognize. This madness for dreams, which I've never tried to reason, is one of the deepest tensions that have led me towards surrealism. A Chien Andalou raised with the merging of one of my dreams with one of Dalí's."”
Un Chien Andalou is the most remarkable surrealist film. The violence of what you see there has a strong moral impact in the audience's mind bringing them into the intricate imaginary world of its director. The film includes one of the most iconic sequences in the history of cinema: A razor blade cutting a woman's eye. This film is one of the essential milestones in two of the most relevant careers of the surrealistic universe.
“"We wrote the script in less than one week with a really simple rule in our minds: Do not accept a single image that might raise a rational, psychological or cultural explanation."”
With an edition devoted to The Surrealistic Sight, we think that screening this cult film is completely necessary. Furthermore, the event we will include a live performance by musician Adrià Bofarull who has written the film score especially for the event. There can be no better evening for this great event than the Festival's opening session. After this wonderful screening and performance, the opening film In The Trap will be on the big screen.[:]
