Synopsis

Like Marcel Proust's Madeleine, the Holy Week celebrations in Cordoba stir up memories in Antonio, who recalls his childhood amid Catholic iconology, filmed in black and white, and the colorful paintings of Paco, a local artist. More like the work of writers such as Julián Ayesta for whom childhood is a space of invention, Picazo and Muñoz's film evokes that rite of passage during which we learn to discover the fragility of the world.
