An absolute gem!
I watched it today at the Zurich Film Festival and enjoyed every single minute of it. Mikel Gurrea describes real life beautifully. There is no black and white, right and wrong in his film. The story is full of feelings, emotions, experiences. The main actors, the only professional actors in this film, show the conflict of the couple's relationship. A huge bonus is the amazingly beautiful Spanish landscape. I found the description of the method of extracting the cork bark to be enlightening and educational - something I have never seen before. It's an absolute "must see" movie. I can't stop thinking about it hours after I left the cinema. Well done Mikel Gurrea!
