Requiem for a Spanish Peasant (Spanish: Réquiem por un campesino español) is a 1985 Spanish historical drama film directed by Francesc Betriu based on the 1953 short novel of the same name by Ramon J. Sender.

Told from the account of priest Mosén Millán, conducting a requiem mass, the plot tracks the life of Republican peasant Paco, killed by Fascists during the Spanish Civil War.
