Synopsis

Unable to fly the nest due to Spain’s economic crisis, a penniless, young couple have trouble consummating their relationship while living in their parents’ homes. With no money to afford a hotel, they are forced to look to public hotspots used for sex, known by the locals as “pikaderos.”

Our take

With Limbo currently in cinemas, it is the perfect time to revisit Ben Sharrock’s darkly hilarious debut where every single frame is stuffed with absurdist visual gags. A damning critique of the recent economic recession, the film remains sympathetic to the plight of its kooky yet sweet paramours.
