Session Times
Sunday 11 April 3:30pm
Directors Félix Sabroso and Dunia Ayaso present this film about a dysfunctional family: Martín wants to leave his parents’ house and become a writer in Paris. His sister, Gracia, is tormented by the fictitious narrative her life has turned into. As for Coral, the remaining sister, she just yearns to be loved. The forthcoming death of their schizophrenic father forces them to leave their inner island in which they live in spiritual isolation. The astonishing script written by the directors is paralleled by a no-less impressive cinematography the use of colour and light are outstanding. Exceptional performances by a remarkable cast, featuring the wonderful Geraldine Chaplin and Candela Peña, provide a light, at times funny quality to their dramatic circumstances. Be enlightened by actor Antonio de la Torre’s personal experience working on this film, that is possibly the most inspiring drama of last year’s Spanish cinema.
