Desc: Madrid en el año 2000: Directed by Manuel Noriega. With Roberto Rey, Javier de Rivera, Amalia Sanz Cruzado, Roberto Iglesias. A fantasy depicting Madrid in the distant (for 1925) future when the city has become a port thanks to the transformation of the Manzanares River into a Suez-type canal affording passage to the grandest of ocean liners. There are some spectacular scenes as ship glide throught the city and past the Royal Palace, a sight that struck contemporary observers as both fantastic.
