Yes, I did.

1. There is nothing like Basque-language cinema. Only some attempts from
time to time. That is a fact.
2. Medem, Calparsoro, Alex de la Iglesia, Imanol Uribe... These people make
Spanish cinema. Good cinema, perhaps. What's the Basqueness about them?
They were born around here. More or less as with the films where Alfredo
Landa appears. Landa's films are shit and the others are good? But that has
nothing to do with Basqueness or not.

listen, many basque film directors

I missed those films, obviously. Can you give me examples?
Take Montxo Armendariz: a couple of films located in Navarre. That makes
"Historias del Kronen" a basque film?

Jakin ezkero, txinoz egingo banizu, susmatzen dut ez zenidakeela ulertuko,
nko. Badirudi horrekin adierazi nahi duzula berdin dizula zer azaltzen
dizudan, berdin dizula ulertu edo ez ulertu, nire arrazoi, argudio edo
iritziek ez dizutela inporta... Ez nau gehiegi mintzen, baina horrela
eztabaidatzen hasita, jai.

This finnally will lead us to the discussion we had some months ago, about
Pio Baroja being a Basque writer or a Spanish writer.
