En los márgenes
Synopsis
A film about family, love and solidarity. The countdown for three intertwined characters trying to keep it together and get through 24 vital hours that will change their lives. En los márgenes explores the impact of economic stress on personal relationships and how friendship and solidarity can get us through life’s most difficult moments. A thrilling race against the clock on the fringe of a big city.
Director’s Statement
Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca wrote: “Underneath the multiplications is a drop of blood.” He was referring to the reality behind the statistics. En los márgenes puts faces to some of those statistics. In Spain there are 41,000 evictions a year, more than 100 a day. The film explores the impact of recession on the relationships between couples, parents, and children. And within that, the role that mothers play as providers of love and well-being within the family.
