Nobody cares much about Amador Coro as he gets out of prison for having set up a criminal fire. He tries to keep a low profile by returning living with his mother, Benedicta, lost somewhere in the mountains of Galicia. Life goes on peacefully until a new fire sweeps the region.
Oliver Laxe (Mimosas) turned to his homeland of Galicia for his third film, a work of mesmerizing humility and ambiguity, and a Jury prize-winner in Cannes. The eerie majesty of nature and of human emotions imbue its tactile images, stunningly shot on film—including visceral scenes of real fires.
