En los márgenes

A film about european 99%'ers struggeling to own a roof over ones familys heads, a film about poverty, greed, desperation, evictions and ultimately death among the average population of spain, that had some of the best welfare systems 30 years ago, before the euro coins entered the market. You see the similar problems elsewhere in the eu-system, and also here in norway ,but on a far lower scale, yet...

its a heartbreaking flick that gives you a troubled mind spending 13 euros for the ticket to the theater, its dead on realistic, and the pure facts on mainland spains ''lets empty the houses of people cause well be better of leaving them empty, because tear and wear and loss due to people living in them'' reigns the housebanking market. No wonder people starts trafficking on the streets to stick/glue things together, and in the long run spain and european countries will loose the trust that people have in goverment and welfare systems. And what happens then, its a simple word and that is called ANARCHY.

A very caotic film where peoples straystories crisscross in a fabulous manner, its despair fees like a knife at moments, the cast does a brilliant job, and the director and crew doesnt spare any means of methods to show reality.

Having travelled to spain several times over the years ive seen the increasing poverty of its kind shown in this flick. Ive also noticed the ignorance that happens when people gets poor and even homeless, the living environments decay and garbage rules the squares and corners where kids used to play happily as children. Social security has its decay here in norway too, but homeless, drunks and drug addicts has a trumph card up their sleeves over here, namely a bottle deposit system , that gives 20 cents for small bottles and cans, and 30 cents for large bottles. Youre not becoming a millionaire, but just a little thing to consider for a nation that use billions of its kind...

anyway, a big recommend to this one, its fun factor is inabsentia, its pure suffering and shows the modern way to drain peoples lust to live thinks the grumpy old man. Muchos gracias directore.
