Spain/2016/93 min.
Directed by Eduard Cortés
Spanish w/ English Subtitles
2007: the housing bubble has already burst in Spain, a full year before it wreaks havoc in the rest of the world. Families are being evicted left and right, their self-esteem in tatters. Sonia, her husband, and their 10-year-old daughter are one of those families, forced to live in their parents’ apartment. They are not the only victims, however. The evictions are leaving a deep mark on the police officials ordered to enact them and on the one honest bank employee who feels guilty about the whole mess. Eduard Cortes’ Brechtian musical celebrates our ability to resist and overcome.
2007: la burbuja inmobiliaria ya estalló en España, un año antes de que cause estragos en el resto del mundo. Las familias están siendo desalojadas a diestra y siniestra, su autoestima en harapos. Sonia, su esposo y su hija de 10 años son una de esas familias obligadas a vivir en el apartamento de sus padres. Sin embargo, no son las únicas víctimas. Los desalojos están dejando una huella profunda sobre los oficiales de policía encargados de ponerlos en marcha y sobre el único empleado honesto del banco que se siente culpable por lo acontecido. Este musical brechtiano de Eduard Cortés celebra nuestra capacidad para resistir y sobrevivir.
