Synopsis

A drama centered on a young woman (Magaly Solier) who takes a summer job caring for a bed-ridden older man, and the intimate secrets they begin to share with one another.

Our take

A meditative film about the stifling burden of poverty, this symbolically-charged drama from writer-director Fernando León de Aranoa boasts a lovely, high-concept set-up. Following a couple who revive flowers they’ve rescued from the dump, Amador is a poignant tale of love, neglect, and renewal.
