"Everyone says that my grandmother is very, very old, but we both know that deep down inside there’s a child hiding." Is it possible to speak to our little ones about Alzheimer’s in a way that’s tender, sensitive and even fun? Alaine Agirre and Ainara Azpiazu bring us an emotional story about a grandmother and her grandson, about love and understanding beyond the codes established by adults.
A couple lose their son in an unexplained accident, two travellers find themselves implicated in a cannibal ritual, bloodthirsty cultists on motorcycles, UFO hunters, Beatnik wolf-men, a youngster with messianic delusions obsessed with blood, a disturbing serial killer... All these stories have a vertiginous rhythm and converge in a terrifying trauma, absurd and memorable in equal parts.
Borja is a translator for an international company in New York, where he lives with his partner John. One night he gets a call from a forgotten cousin to tell him his brother has just died and left him something. Many years ago in the nineties, Borja left the Basque Country to cut ties with a family and a country poisoned by hate and a lack of understanding.
