The Colegio de Arquitectos de Catalunya commissioned Pere Portabella to make this film for the Joan Miró retrospective exhibit in 1969. There were heated discussions on whether it would be prudent to screen the film during the exhibit. Portabella took the following stance: "either both films are screened or they don't screen any" and, finally, both Miro l'Altre and Aidez l'Espagne were shown. The film was made by combining newsreels and film material from the Spanish Civil War with prints by Miró from the series "Barcelona" (1939-1944). The film ends with the painter's "pochoir" known as Aidez l'Espagne.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

See those 3 words Stimulating, evocative, poignant? Those are the words used too many times to describe the kind of crap shorts that get commissioned in this country. So guess what? Braineater is none of those things. So alas here is an Irish short that happens to be pure fun. It happens to entertain it's audience. No, not just the turtle neck tossers, I mean everyone. People say there should be more filmmakers like McMahon. I say no. I believe there is a lot of truth is the old saying 'The best things come in small doses'. The IFB should embrace people like Conor McMahon, and others like Ciaran Foy and Andrew Legge. Young filmmakers that have that rare talent to appeal
