Días de cine is a period comedy that finds its progressive strength in thematic subversion rather than diverse casting. By setting the story during the Spanish Transition, the film engages with the dismantling of authoritarianism and the critique of institutional corruption. However, the film remains demographically narrow. The cast reflects the localized, homogeneous nature of 1977 Spain, resulting in low scores for racial and LGBTQ+ representation. The narrative focuses on class and political friction rather than the overlapping aspects of identity. Ultimately, the film offers a sophisticated look at professional and social power dynamics, even if it lacks explicit representation of underrepresented groups.

Official Synopsis
Comedy set in 1977, in which a renowned playwright (Alberto San Juan) tries to shoot a social protest drama starring a doldrums folk, former child star (Natalie Poza) and produced by a producer and shameless liar (Miguel Rellán). Inexperience, ambition, lack of means and the love-hate relationship with the star director shooting become a craze.
