Film Synopsis
Exorcismo: The Transgressive Legacy of Clasificada ‘S’ (2024) follows director Alberto Sedano as he explores the rise of the “Clasificada S” film classification in post-Franco Spain, where censorship gave way to a wave of erotic, violent and politically subversive movies. As he uncovers archival footage, interviews cult filmmakers, and charts how directors used horror and exploitation to challenge authoritarian norms, it becomes clear that these films were more than pulp—they were acts of cultural rebellion. This documentary blends historical analysis, genre cinema enthusiasm and visual excess in a fierce examination of a forgotten frontier of Spanish filmmaking.
