Bigas Luna’s The Tit and the Moon and Golden Balls

 Introduction by Bigas Luna specialist Santiago Fouz Hernández  

The Tit and the Moon
Nine-year-old Tete, fueled by jealously following the birth of his baby brother, sets out to find the perfect pair of breasts from which to feed. When gorgeous dancer Estrellita comes to town, he thinks he’s got his match. All the men have their eye on the new girl, however, and Tete must weigh his chances against her adult suitors.
In Spanish, French, and Catalan with English subtitles.,35mm, color, 90 mins, EGEDA, Spain/France, 1994. 

Golden Balls
Arguably Bigas Luna’s greatest masterpiece and one of the funniest, sexiest and most disturbing portraits of the new Spain put on film. Benito (Javier Bardem, at his carnal best) believes that because he has (literally) two huevos, he deserves two of everything else:  Rolexes, cars, women, whatever. Co-starring the stunning Maribel Verdu (Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN) and Maria de Medeiros (PULP FICTION). Luna’s caustic satire of kitsch and the new rich has something to offend everyone.
In Spanish with English subtitles,35mm, 95 Minutes, EGEDA, Spain/Italy/France,1993
