TIOVIVO

Dir. Roberto De La Muela

Sinopsis

One argument in Stuart Mill’s Utilitarianism is that if a truth is not intended to do good or cause harm to other people it is better not to be told. Four friends hold their friendship under this idea and even with a great deal of trust, they lack the communication necessary to deal with their problems. A night of partying involving a carousel will end up bringing out the truth along with the wildest side of four friends.

Pocas Nueces

POCAS NUECES

Dir. Paula Rodrigo

Synopsis

Catalina just turned 35. Along with grappling with an internal crisis over what is  expected of her, she is also navigating a different kind of crisis with her recent ex husband, Román. They are locked in a dispute over the last property they still  share: an idyllic estate on the outskirts of Madrid.  

It’s a wonderful place to spend time alone, but Catalina is determined to keep it,  mainly because it’s where Julio lives. He’s one of the live-in caretakers of the estate  and has been working for Román for several years. 

Catalina and Julio met, had occasional encounters, and are now realizing that what  they’re starting to feel for each other is incompatible with their lives and their  futures. Because love can’t overcome everything, because the differences that  brought them together are the same ones that threaten what they’re building, and  because the need to love and be loved is at the heart of this small story.

Mantra

MANTRA

Dir. Javier Elizalde

Synopsis

The story of Mantra takes place in a retro-futuristic utopia where technology is not what we know and interpersonal relationships are cold and meticulous. We meet Marcos, who works for the government to alter people’s memories through déjà vues. To carry out these missions, he is given cassette tapes with detailed instructions such as where the subject will be, what Marcos must do to awaken certain memories in the subject, etc.

The tape that Marcos has been listening to for weeks is damaged halfway through the instructions. Marcos, knowing the tape by heart, is unable to remember it once it is damaged, making him unable to carry out the mission.

We meet Enrique, an operator who monitors Marcos from his laboratory through the mirror in the living room. Upon seeing what happened, he decides to lie to headquarters because he has seen something interesting in him.

Threads of haste

THREADS OF HASTE

Dir. Vega Mancebo Hernández

Synopsis

Constant overstimulation has become a persistent force, quietly pulsing through every aspect of our modern existence. In our desperate search for moments of stillness, we are overwhelmed by an unrelenting flood of noise—mental and environmental—that invades and consumes us, gradually becoming an inseparable part of who we are. How often do we yearn for silence, only to discover that it remains just beyond our grasp? This constant tension drives us to reflect, to accept that true silence is an impossible ideal. Perhaps it is in the shadows that true depth is found—where light and dark meet. Maybe, in that delicate balance, we will find the peace we so desperately chase—or perhaps, we won’t.
