    • Synopsis
    • Death at Torrevieja is a portrait of a stuck Spain, living on the daily and looking for easy money, working to attract and serve tourists, getting trapped in a vicious cycle of fast income in the summer and financial drought in the winter. Chetia thinks she’s the queen of Torrevieja, a NEET that makes money scamming tourists in illegal balconing bets, but her reality is far more difficult when she gets home: she has to take care of her son, Yeray, a kid she felt forced to have and that Bes her to a city that’s consuming her and that she tries to escape desperately.
