    • Synopsis
    • Manolo Cruz (who also wrote the film) gives a tremendous performance as Alberto, inhabiting a young man trapped by physical hardship but unbound by spirit. Carlos del Castillo directed this indelible first feature, which portrays the extraordinary grace of characters caught in between the margins of a beautiful place.
