Arrebato (1980) is today the ultimate cult film of Spanish cinema, and Iván Zulueta, its director, a cursed filmmaker. Arrebato was the film that anticipated the end of La Movida, a dark and raw movie whose story and meta-narrative are intimately connected. The film serves as a premonition of the filmmaker’s own life. Like its protagonists, Zulueta would ultimately be consumed by drugs and cinema, and, like them, would also vanish.
