About Mikel's Death
Opening at the funeral mass for Mikel, we flashback to those that played a part in Mikel's life and death; his estranged wife, his traditional Basque mother, a female impersonator and friend to Mikel in his coming out, and even the local priest.
Directed by Imanol Uribe, Mikel's Death leans on a strong ensemble — Imanol Arias, Montserrat Salvador, Fernando Telletxea — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1984.
