Esa sensación
In this original and humorous film, three Spanish directors tell three stories: about a woman who gets excited by inanimate objects (such as a parking meter, kitchen steps or a metal bridge); a man who follows his father in order to unravel his secret; and a couple of friends who suddenly, as if felled by a virus, display improper behaviour without wanting to.
These three interwoven storylines seem at first sight to have little to do with each other, but a common feature is that the characters experience an unexpected and slightly addictive sensation. That enigmatic feeling drags them out of their daily routine and forces them to think about issues such as love, faith and human will.
The collaboration between established director Juan Cavestany and his younger colleagues Julián Génisson and Pablo Hernando provides a film that feels lightfooted, yet is far from superficial.
