    • Synopsis
    • Oscar Peyrou (72) He is currently president of the Spanish Association of Film Critics and delegate of the FIPRESCI awards in Madrid. Oscar’s life is now empty. Two years ago, the love of his life and mother of his children, passed away. A year before that, he had left her for a much younger woman. Now, he lives with guilt and complete solitude in a small apartment in Madrid. Film festivals have become the engine of his life, his thrill. But something is threatening his trips. The last operation he had on his eyes didn’t go well at all, and since then he’s lost most of his sight. However, he’s kept the problem with his sight secret; he doesn’t want to give up travelling to the festivals, although his condition makes it difficult to see the films at the festivals. Oscar has a very peculiar method to write his critics, for him it is not necessary to see the films, it is enough to analyze them through the poster.
