Franco, ese hombre, translated into English as Franco, this man, is a 1964 documentary film by Spanish director José Luis Sáenz de Heredia. It follows the military and political career of the Spanish Head of State Francisco Franco until the 25th anniversary of the end of the Civil War. It uses diverse footage and interviews Franco's doctor in Morocco, Manuel Aznar Zubigaray, and Franco himself. It is a commemorative documentary of the 25th anniversary of Franco's victory in the Spanish Civil War.
It was produced at the instigation of the political elite of the fascist state and is largely hagiographic in nature. The film concludes with a four-minute interview with Franco.[1]
