Onde Está Ane?

A desperate mother called Lide (Patricia López Arnaiz) discovers that her teenager daughter (Ane Jone Laspiur) has gone missing and together with ex-husband Fernando (Mikel Losada) investigates her whereabouts throughout Vitoria and surroundings.

Family drama set in the tense Vitoria-Gasteiz in 2009. The protagonist Lide well played by Patricia López Arnaiz works as a security guard for one of the construction companies of the AVE that is going to unite the three provinces of Euskadi. Being set in a political-social situation marked by the outlawing of terrorist parties , the Kale Borroka and the last gasps of ETA and the radical opposition of the Aberzales groups to the high-speed train works. Lide is a courageous mother of a broken family , along the way she faces daily acts of vandalism suffered by her company and her conflicts with her ex-husband, Fernando . When Lide realizes that her teenage daughter Ane has not spent the night at home and starts looking for her, she will also discover that her daughter is a complete stranger. After defeating the Terrorist Organization ETA and renunciation of the armed struggle in 2011 , it brought new contributions in series and films that enrich the treatment of terrorism with more plural perspectives and greater freedom. Actually, already in 2008 there are at least three titles that anticipate the new approaches: ¨Todos Estamos Invitados¨ or We are all invited (M. Gutiérrez Aragón), ¨Un Tiro en la cabeza¨ or Shot in the head (Jaime Rosales) and ¨El Infierno Vasco¨ or The Basque Hell (Iñaki Arteta). We are referring to films that are thorny for democracy, such as ¨Lasa and Zabala¨ (Pablo Malo, 2014) about an ominous crime to chronicles that make just memory such as the documentary series by Jon Sistiaga ETA, ¨El final del Silencio¨ or the end of silence (2019) or the reconstruction of the beginnings of the terrorist band ¨La linea invisible¨ (Mariano Barroso, 2020), dramatizations with a desire to investigate the human condition, such as the series ¨Patria¨ (2020), even critical works by reduction to the absurd with a humorous mood, such as the tapes of Borja Cobeaga ¨Negotiator¨ (2014) and ¨Fe de Etarras¨ (2017).
