The Grandfather
Gregoria
After his son dies, an elderly man comes back to Spain from the US and hopes to find out which of his granddaughters is true, and which one is bastard.
La herida luminosa
Dr. Molinos, a prestigious cardiologist, and his wife Isabel are going through a serious marital crisis. They live in Oviedo, in the oppressive Spain of the 50s, in the company of two maids: Escolástica and Jovita. His only daughter, Maribel, entered a convent of nuns. The unexpected love felt by Dr. Molinos for Julia, a young doctor who is much younger than him, makes him feel alive again.
Regalo de Navidad
Eternamente
Luciérnagas
Cradle Song
Madre Vicaria
A group of nuns find an abandoned baby girl at the doorstep of their convent.
Manuel y Clemente
María Martín
Manuel and Clemente, couple in the shower and in various scheming, try to do business with miraculous apparitions. Near the Sevillian town of El Palmar de Troya, in 1968, people begin to say that the Virgin appears and the two friends take advantage of the situation. Soon a network of economic interests and credulity is created that makes it easier for Manuel and Clemente to achieve their goal: a monumental basilica, a religious order of nuns, priests and bishops of their own, and even a pope, Gregory XVII. Satire on the curious origin of the Palmarian Catholic Church and its unique founders.
El sur
Estrella adulta (voice)
In the North of Spain, Estrella grows up captivated by her father, a doctor with mystical powers—and by the enigma of his youth in El Sur, a near-mythical region whose secrets haunt Estrella more and more as time goes on.
En Septiembre
Leticia
The former pupils of the school "Ateneo" meet several years later to honor the retirement of the head master, Mrs. María. The house where everyone meets, still evokes ancient memories from that time. One of them proposes something very special, to play the journey exactly as they used to do it. From the 40 people committed, only 9 show up. Their frustration grows when the journey begins and they still don't know what are they going to do.
And They Lived Happily Ever After
Almudena
Manoli and Fernando, a couple of communist ideas, want to live their love freely, fleeing from any bourgeois convention. At first, the couple rejects the help of her parents, but soon they will begin to give in and accept all kinds of comforts.
Tío Vania
Elena
No somos de piedra
Lucas, typical average Spaniard, shy, gray and repressed, is married to sanctimonious Enriqueta, so he is always aware of other women, although the couple are already parents of nine children, which is why Lucas will do the unspeakable to convince his wife to take the contraceptive pill, something practically sinful for a practicing Catholic like Enriqueta.
La alarma
Amparito del Real
The press announces the arrival of an alien invasion. At the same time, a professor investigates a series of phenomena related to radioactivity and a woman.
Snakes and Ladders
Blanca
Jose Antonio Amor co-stars with Sonia Bruno and Maria Blanco in this comedy drama about a married man with three children. When his family leaves on vacation, the man has an affair with a pretty office worker. The relationship between the two develops slowly before they end up in bed together. Speeded up shots are used effectively to illustrate the thoughts of the characters. Technical aspects and performances are fine and overshadow some uneven editing.
