Las Horas del dia

Quinzaine 2003 | Feature film | 1H43mn

Abel lives with his mother in a small town on the outskirts of Barcelona. His whole life revolves around their small family business, his mother’s house, his girlfriend’s bed, the corner newsstand, and the neighborhood bars. It’s always more of the same: the same old problems, same faces, the same old conversations. Under his pleasant, calm exterior, something inexplicably cracks apart. He is powerless to stop it. One Thursday afternoon, Abel commits a murder.
