La Movida Madrileña
20th-century Spanish countercultural movement
Summary
La Movida Madrileña, also known simply as La Movida, was a countercultural movement that emerged mainly in Madrid during the Spanish transition to democracy following the death of the dictator Francisco Franco in 1975. The movement coincided with Spain's economic growth and a widespread desire to forge a post-Franco identity. The tribute concert to "Canito" [es] held on 9 February 1980, is traditionally regarded as the beginning of La Movida Madrileña.
