Carne de fieras (Chair de Fauves) est un film espagnol réalisé par Armand Guerra en 1936.

Tourné en 1936 par Armand Guerra et récupéré pendant l'été 1991, le film existe actuellement grâce à la reconstruction réalisée par Ferrán Alberich et soutenue par le Patronato Municipal Filmoteca de Zaragoza, .

Carne de fieras voit sa production démarrer avant la révolution espagnole du 19 juillet 1936, grâce à un producteur privé, Arturo Carballo. Le tournage est arrêté à cause du putsch franquiste. Armand Guerra rédigera des souvenirs détaillés de cette période dans A traves de la metralla (À travers la mitraille). Sous l’impulsion de la centrale anarcho-syndicaliste CNT (Confédération nationale du travail) qui souhaite que les contrats des techniciens et des comédiens soient honorés, le tournage du film est achevé. Les rushes sont oubliés dans leurs boîtes jusqu’en 1992. Le documentaire d'Ezequiel Fernandez : Armand Guerra, requiem pour un cinéaste espagnol (1997), évoque de manière précise le contexte de ce tournage, qui sera la dernière fiction de Guerra.

Synopsis

Le film se passe dans le monde du spectacle. C'est l'histoire de Pablo, un boxeur amoureux de son épouse Aurora. Cette dernière entretient une relation adultère avec un chanteur de cabaret. Quand Pablo surprend les amants, il demande le divorce et entre dans une profonde dépression qui l'amènera à perdre un combat de boxe. C'est alors qu'il connaît Marlène, une artiste de variété, dont le rôle consiste en danser dénudée dans une cage avec quatre lions, et qui est unie sentimentalement à son compagnon de travail, le dompteur Marck.

Imbued with the spirit of the left-wing political movement, Popular Front, which would have a major political victory that year, the film chronicles the story of M. Lange (René Lefèvre), a mild-mannered clerk at a publishing company who dreams of writing Western stories. He gets his chance when Batala (Jules Berry), the salacious head of the company, fakes his own death and the abandoned workers decide to form a cooperative. They have great success with Lange's stories about the cowboy, Arizona Jim — whose stories parallel the real-life experiences of the cooperative. At the same time, Lange and his neighbor, Valentine (Florelle), fall in love.

Venu de Madrid, le flic Aníbal Uriarte, ancien militaire, arrive en ville pour collaborer avec la police locale et arrêter les auteurs du vol. Alors que la violence s'étend à tout le pays, Uriarte ne trouve pas beaucoup de soutien parmi ses pairs qui le choquent par leurs méthodes illégales et expéditives pour interroger les anarchistes accusés de l'attaque du train. Dans un pays déchiré où la mafia locale et les syndicats se mobilisent, représentés par un certain Salvador Ortiz et sa fille féministe Sara, Uriarte tente à tout prix retrouver les armes dérobées pour empêcher un possible coup d'état et un massacre général.

Set in 2004, the film revolves around three young anti-capitalist activists in Berlin's city centre: Jule (Julia Jentsch), her boyfriend Peter (Stipe Erceg) and his best friend Jan (Daniel Brühl). Jule is a waitress struggling to pay off a €100,000 debt she incurred a year ago when she crashed into a Mercedes-Benz S-Class belonging to a wealthy businessman named Hardenberg (Burghart Klaußner). After her eviction for non-payment of rent she moves in with Peter and Jan, who are often out all night. While Peter is in Barcelona, Jan tells Jule that he and Peter spend their nights "educating" upper-class people by breaking into their houses, moving furniture around and leaving notes saying "die fetten Jahre sind vorbei" ("the days of plenty are over") or "Sie haben zu viel Geld" ("you have too much money").

The film is a biography of anarchist Sakae Ōsugi, who was assassinated by the Japanese military in 1923. The story tells of his relationship with three women: Hori Yasuko, his wife; Noe Itō, his third lover, who was to die with him; and his jealous, second lover, Masaoka Itsuko, a militant feminist who attempts to kill him in a tea house in 1916. Parallel to the telling of Ōsugi’s life, two students (Eiko and Wada) do research on the political theories and ideas of free love that he upheld. Some of the characters from the past and from the present meet and engage the themes of the movie.
