la aguila

La Aguila is an arts centre. Used to be a brewery. The lift has a mirror that stretches to Portugal. The cinema has leather seats. The projectionist can be seen through a glass window. The banos belong to the poshest of hotels. They show old classics and obscure moderns. Including something about the real Corleone, whose workers took on the mafia. Easier going than Requiem For a Dream. And the cost of all this artistic luxury? Nada. Zero. You do not have to pay.
