Surrealism, with its often
anarchic call to revolt, has also provided a powerful
inspiration for exploring the web of unconscious links
between eating, sexuality and social order. Across the
career of just one surrealist film-maker, Luis Bunuel, it
is possible to trace a continuing assault on totem and
taboo, much of it expressed through bizarre images of food
and eating.
Bunuel’s first film in his
native Spain was a documentary on the barren region of Las
Hurdes. An extraordinarily powerful documentary on the
impoverished people living in this region, Bunuel’s vision
is so strong that the film becomes unsettling, turning the
real into the surreal.
