(NOW
WE ARE EUROPEANS)
Ya
semos europeos is a comedy series
of seven 30-minute long episodes. The idea for this series arose out
of Spain’s entry into the EEC.
On a TV set, by means of seven reports, the reporter Albert Boadella
presents us with a radiography of Spain. With a large dose of irony,
sarcasm and cynicism, combined with an immense creativity in the presentation,
an analysis is made of the situations in which a Spain increasingly
close to Europe finds itself.
Parodies are offered of themes like: the Single European Act/Treaty,
the uniformed professions, unemployment, the treatment of animals, 1992,
quiz shows or the workings of communications in the country.
Ya
semos europeos attracted an audience of 6 million viewers when
shown on Spanish Televison’s TV2.
