The Hero of Cascorro
“El Héroe De Cascorro” is a peculiar Spanish silent film, a bizarre fact in itself for a country’s film industry scarce in interest or remarkable oeuvres. The film depicts the true, but dramatized, story of the brave Spanish soldier, Herr Eloy Gonzalo, rewarded during the Cuban war for his bravery defending the Spanish army position at Cascorro village.
