ON THE FRINGE (2022) [EN LOS MÁRGENES] Trailer - 2023 Spanish Cinema Now
0 views • Aug 20, 2023
The stakes are high in this ticking clock social thriller produced by and starring Spanish icon Penélope Cruz and centered on Spain's housing crisis. Azucena (Cruz) is a supermarket employee days away from an eviction notice; Rafa (Luis Tosar, in an engrossing performance) is a tenants' rights lawyer whose activism is on the verge of destroying his marriage; and Teodora (Adelfa Calvo) is an elderly woman attempting but failing to reach her son, an unskilled laborer ashamed of his trade. Writer/director Juan Diego Botto and co-writer Olga Rodríguez interweave these three stories to create a propulsive gut-punch of a film that puts a face to the numbing statistics that are a harsh reality of Spanish society and calls to mind the work of social realist director Ken Loach (I, DANIEL BLAKE). Official Selection, 2022 Venice and San Sebastián film festivals. DIR/SCR Juan Diego Botto; SCR Olga Rodríguez PROD Penélope Cruz, Álvaro Longoria. Spain/Belgium, 2022, color, 105 min. In Spanish with English subtitles.
