]
Juanma Bajo Ulloa was born in
Vitoria-Gasteiz
,
Alava
, on 1 January 1967.
[1]
His parents
mortgaged
their house to fund Bajo Ulloa's film beginnings.
[2]
His first feature film
Alas de Mariposa
(1991) earned the
Golden Shell
at the San Sebastian Film Festival.
[3]
With the money earned with that movie he produced his second one,
La Madre Muerta
, which is a good example of his
baroque
style, combining a perfect technique with the atmosphere of an almost sinister fairy tale. His third movie,
Airbag
(1997), was a huge box office success, becoming the highest grossing film in the history of Spanish cinema (the record was beaten however a year later by
Torrente, el brazo tonto de la ley
).

music videos

, and
Barricada
