Above is an English-subtitled trailer for the movie I discuss in this reflection, Ochos apellidos vascos (translated as A Spanish Affair for Anglophone audiences.) The main character, Rafa, before and after taking on his false Basque identity, “Anxton.” For a reflection on U.S. regional stereotypes inspired by this thinking about Spanish regional politics, see here.

Note: This reflection was written in my junior fall, before my study abroad experience in Spain, and reflects my curiosities and thinking about multilingual countries. The other posts in my “Language and Community” category, as well as my Pechakucha presentation, chart how these understandings continue to develop!
