Synopsis
Reviews
"It is a warm and mature ensemble film, in which he hands the camera over to seven black people in Spain to have them make a film. Self-representation, doubts, in an intimate, fragmentary and necessarily partial portrait. A movie that makes you want to live.” - Gonzalo de Pedro, Cineteca Madrid
