By the end of the 48 hours, Tano has also witnessed the collapse of all the things he takes for granted in his life: the neighbourhood, his family, friends and loved-ones - everything is somehow different for him.

Spanish Movie Night:Gente en SitiosTuesday 4th July, 6 pm, at Southern Cross Bar and Restaurant
Made up of twenty short scenes with different tones and subjects with no link between them, this kaleidoscopic tale seems to randomly make its way through comedy, drama, social chronicle, horror and surrealism with a common denominator: human nature against the unusual and the chaotic. A man has forgotten how to walk. A waiter seems to take forever to write the order. A woman decides to change her face to try to gain some attention from her husband. Cavestany presents a myriad of situations where you never know what to expect. |
