Spain is a country in Southern Europe. It's major cities include Madrid and Barcelona. It is famous for bull-fighting, conquistadors, the 1992 Summer Olympics and Antonio Banderas. Aside from a few key actors and production crew members, Spain has contributed very little to the science fiction genre as a whole.
Spain is the birth place of film director and screenwriter Alberto Sciamma who was born in Barcelona in 1961. Alberto wrote and directed the 1996 horror/comedy film Killer Tongue. The movie itself was a combined production between Spanish and UK studios.
