Josefina Molina (Córdoba, 1936), director of works such as Función de noche, Esquilache, or the series Teresa de Jesús, dedicated a good part of her life to demonstrating that the female perspective was not an exception in the history of cinema, but an essential part of it. A pioneer of Spanish audiovisual, the first woman to graduate in Directing from the Official Film School and the first filmmaker to receive the Honorary Goya, she turned each project into a claim for female freedom to tell their own stories. “To see the world in relief you have to have two eyes and Humanity has been one-eyed for too long,” Molina stated. The sentence ended up becoming the best summary of a life dedicated to broadening the perspective of cinema. The director passed away this Saturday in Madrid at the age of 89. The wake will take place at the Boadilla del Monte funeral home starting at 16:00 hours.
