Andras Menzo
Director Leon de Winter has taken a thriller with political and psychological overtones, and scrambled it into a series of vignettes that are mixed-up in time and in location, thereby dashing any hope of following the story. A journalist goes to a southern European country to interview a well-known terrorist who has refused to stop his activities even though the revolution he fought for ended successfully five years earlier. Questions are raised about adopting violence as a way of life without at first realizing it and about the seeming impossibility of raising the consciousness of backwater cultures. Perhaps because of the way the story has been filleted into fragments, characters like the journalist and terrorist do not have enough continuous screen time to build up their individuality, a second factor that makes it difficult to become involved in the drama.

Anselmo
엄마인 마리아가 지병을 앓다 죽자 아나는 아버지 때문이라며 독약이라고 생각되는 가루를 탄 음료수를 아버지에게 먹인다. 그 때문인지 아빠 안셀모도 죽게 되고, 아나와 이레네, 마이테는 졸지에 고아 신세가 된다. 죽은 엄마 아빠의 자리를 대신해 세자매는 이모와 거의 식물인간이나 다름없는 외할머니와 살게 된다. 영화는 아빠 안젤모의 죽음으로부터 시작해서 방학을 끝내고 다시 학교로 가는 세자매의 모습을 담은 간단한 줄거리를 가지고 있다. 그러나 이 영화는 시간을 가로지르며 아빠가 죽은 해인 현재를 중심으로, 부모가 살아있었을 때인 과거와 어른이 되어 '현재'를 회상하는 '미래'의 모습을 뒤섞어 프랑코 독재 정권 말기의 스페인 중산층 가족의 모습을 입체적으로 담아내고 있다. 프랑코 체제에 맞섰던 사우라의 긴 예술적 투쟁의 완성점을 이루는 걸작. 세 자매 중 둘째 아나는 한밤 중 아버지의 복상사를 목격하고 자신이 독살했다고 믿는다. 병으로 죽은 엄마에 이어 아버지마저 죽자 이모가 할머니와 세 자매의 보호를 맡는다. 아나는 계속 엄마의 환영을 보는 한편 이모를 독살하려 한다.
