Viva Film Festival 08

Dir: Jaime Marques Olarreaga
Spain 2007 105mins subtitled
Cast: Juan Jose Ballesta, Maria Valverde

Brought up in a children's home, Alex finds employment at a hairdressers, but trust is not easy to find when faced with the prejudices that accompany who he is and where he's come from. As such, when temptation comes knocking he is unable to resist.

Searching for his mother he perfects the tricks of the pick-pocketing trade. Then he meets Sara and a new relationship is forged as they move away from his habitual haunts to bigger and more dangerous propositions.

Marques' debut feature avoids the gritty language of realism in crafting a dreamlike, at times almost balletic, reflection on the politics of belonging.

£6.25 (£5) (£2.50 Warwick Uni Students)
