Armand Guerra (died 1939 March 10) was a Spanish filmmaker and anarchist. Fought fascism with a camera.

As a 20-year old anarchist in France Guerra helps found a film co-operative. (Two of his films were recently found: The Old Docker and The Commune.)

Guerraʼs film "Carne de Fieras" was unreleased, and thought lost forever, until the negative was discovered and the film released in 1993.

As a journalist, Guerra (pseudonym for Jose Estivalis Calvo) chronicled his own efforts, and the collected articles constitute an unique view on the Spanish conflict: Through the Grapeshot.

Exhausted, he dies in Paris on 1939 March 10, after 20 days in exile.

Armand Guerra: Requiem for an Anarchistic Scenario Writer by Ezéquiel Fernandez and produced by Zangra productions is a recent video which touches on aspects of his life.
