Juan Echanove directs 'La escopeta nacional' adaptation and defends respect between parties

Actor and director Juan Echanove presents a theatrical version of Luis García Berlanga's work at the Teatro Español, addressing current corruption and political division.

Juan Echanove directs an adaptation of 'La escopeta nacional' that includes four musical numbers. He states that the original text requires no updates because it reflects situations appearing in today's news broadcasts.

The director compares recent corruption cases with those portrayed in Berlanga's film. He notes that this problem has existed since the Franco era and was not introduced by figures such as Ábalos or Cerdán.

Echanove criticizes the lack of respect in political debate and on social media. At age 65, he defends the need to build bridges between the left and the PP without fear of criticism.
