Abstract
Geographical object as locations of the films, analyzed in the article, are tackled not as places of interest. The author studies the reasons of this or that choice, the presentation methods of different cities and streets as reflections of the political, economic and cultural situation in the country. Geographical objects are of great importance in displaying the general atmosphere of life in Spain, and thus, the research of the very narrative object enables the author to come to a number of conclusions connected both with the history of Spain and the history of Spanish cinema.
city, image system, metaphor, claustrophobia, Aesopian language, symbolism, allusions, stagnation, Frankism
