The story of a hugely charismatic man who, for years, served as the speaker of the Spanish association of Holocaust victims, and who kept alive, before the media, within his own association, and even within his own family, a highly complex fabrication: He claimed to be a survivor of a Nazi concentration camp, a fact that turned out to be a shameful lie.

In the realm of moving images, “Marco” aims to deconstruct acts of storytelling under the instruction of recontextualized history. Rated: 6/10 Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Manu Yáñez Fotogramas In any case, if 'Marco' ends up being a satisfactory experience, it is largely thanks to the notable work of Eduard Fernández, who moves like a fish in water between Marco's duplicities...
