Nine Letters to Berta (Spanish: Nueve cartas a Berta) is a 1966 Spanish drama film written and directed by Basilio Martín Patino which stars Mari Carrillo, Emilio Gutiérrez Caba, and Antonio Casas.

It is widely acknowledged as a hallmark title of the so-called Nuevo Cine Español.

[1] In the 1950s,[2] Lorenzo Carvajal, son to a former Francoist combatant now working in a bank and a pious housewife, returns to Salamanca from a spell in England.

He writes love letters to a woman he met in England, Berta Carballeira (never featured onscreen), the daughter of a Spanish exile, also detailing the sense of weariness he experiences back in his native city, as he feels stranged from his family, local girlfriend, and friends.

[10] 417,965 tickets were sold, with the film proving to be a blockbuster relative to comparable Nuevo Cine Español titles.
