José Luis Cuerda is, without a doubt, one of the greatest directors that Spanish cinema has produced; By now, it goes without saying that some of his films are true masterpieces. In them he has carefully cultivated his own lustrous imaginaries that have already become part of the collective imagination.

In these Fried Memoirs, Cuerda reviews many of the facets of his life, his desires and stimuli in the field of creation. Hilarious at times, wise, emotional, eloquent, thoughtful, affectionate, a little grumpy, always peppered with a lot of humor -also with a start of tears- these polyhedral memories cover from her childhood in Albacete to her recent grandmother, going through the rest of his life: the seminar, his work at tve, his films as a director, his films as a producer, his relationship with literature, his political activism, his first steps as a vintner, his love for graffiti on the internet and much more.

Being faithful to Voltaire's maxim —the best way to be bored is to tell everything—, José Luis Cuerda offers us in Fried Memoirs an extraordinary overview of what his life has been and is.
