constantly, the films that we show in the cycles of the Museum of Fine Arts of Valencia lead us to mention the work and the life of writers. Either because they have helped to define a genre or a specific historical time, because they have worked as screenwriters, because his work has been particularly fortunate in being adapted to cinema or, simply, due to the universal condition of his stories.
