Nine Letters to Bertha (1966) follows the journey of Lorenzo, a student navigating the oppressive atmosphere of 1950s Spain under dictatorship. After spending time in England, Lorenzo encounters a new perspective on life, different people, and a new horizon, embodied by Berta, the daughter of an exile. Upon returning to Spain, he finds himself trapped in the mundane routines and traditional expectations of his family, friends, and girlfriend. The monotony of his small town becomes unbearable. The film is structured into nine segments, each representing a letter Lorenzo writes to Berta. The narrative is predominantly driven by voiceover, creating a deeply engaging experience marked by weariness, existentialism, and a cathartic exploration of the protagonist's inner turmoil, masterfully portrayed by Emilio Gutiérrez Caba.
