Why we love it
A fascinating
debut as a screenwriter and director by the
prestigious acting coach Gerard Oms, starring
one of his most talented students, Mario
Casas, whose remarkable performance in four
languages earned him the Best Actor award at
the Málaga Film Festival. A Spanish-Dutch co-
production, �lmed entirely in the Netherlands,
with a naturalistic and neorealist tone that
is both a social drama about immigration
(approached from the original perspective of
a European lost within the European Union)
and an insightful portrait of a character’s
search for identity, unable to �nd his place in
the world and accept his contradictions. The
extraordinary soundtrack is by the renowned
singer and composer Sílvia Pérez Cruz, and
the editing was done by director Neus Ballús,
winner of the Silver Spike at the Valladolid
Seminci for THE ODD-JOB MEN.
