The Lame Pigeon (Spanish: El palomo cojo)[1] is a 1995 Spanish drama film written and directed by Jaime de Armiñán, based on the 1991 novel by Eduardo Mendicutti, based on his childhood.[2] It stars María Barranco, Francisco Rabal, Carmen Maura and a young Miguel Ángel Muñoz, in his feature film debut. It is a coming of age story of a ten-year-old boy sent to the house of his maternal grandparents, which is full of eccentric characters. The boy has to deal with the realization of his sexual identity. The title makes reference to the analogy of a lame pigeon with homosexuality.[2] The film is an exploration of class and sexual identity in Andalusia, Spain, in the 1950s.
