On August 12, 2026, there will be a total solar eclipse—the only one in our lifetime that will be visible across large parts of Spain. To mark this fortunate event, film critic, programmer, and producer Martin Pawley—who is also an astronomy lover and expert on the mysteries of the sky—will take us on a journey through the portrayal of total solar eclipses in cinema. A commented screening or an illustrated lecture, set in the Casa de Campo, to delve into a phenomenon that has fascinated all cultures since the dawn of time. NURIA CUBAS
