Abstract
Que Julio Medem ha sido uno de los hitos del cine vasco, es indiscutible. Es por ello, (y seguramente) por su procedencia que la temática del pueblo vasco queda a menudo ligada a su obra. Me refiero al pueblo en sus dos connotaciones: como sociedad y como pueblo, geográficamente hablando. Sus filmes, en ocasiones, han configurado ambas connotaciones, recreando lugares comunes y otros menos comunes, de la tierra vasca. Esta tierra no es ni más ni menos compleja que otras, pero pertenezco a ella y toca hablar de lo nuestro. La película „Vacas‟ es un fiel reflejo de todo ello.
That Julio Medem has been one of the milestones of the basque cinema, it is indisputable. It is for it, (and surely) for his origin that the subject matter of the basque people remains often tied to his work. I refer to the village in his two connotations: as society and as village, geographically speaking. His movies, in occasions, have formed both connotations, recreating less common and different places, of the basque land. This land is not any more not less complex than other lands, but I belong to it and it has to speak about ours. The movie „Vacas‟ is a faithful reflection of all that.
