Movie description:
At the tender age of eight Marcel is abandoned by his mother. He is raised by his grandfather, Pascual, who introduces him to a world of fantasy and gives him the love and care that his mother couldn’t. When Marcel turns twenty-one, he believes the time has come to live on his own. He’s got plans with his girlfriend and feels ready to leave his home. At the same time, Pascual has become very old, and starts showing the symptoms of a disease that will dramatically affect Marcel’s plans. He must chose to leave or stay to take care of the only relative that ever loved him and cared for him. The choice is far from simple, between his grandfather and his love, in this critically acclaimed, tender, coming-of-age story from the crossroads of desire, devotion and love.
Alina is a waitress in a club in the city Valencia. She is divorced and has a little son, Marcel. Marcel is eager for his mother’s attention and tenderness, but all he ever gets from her are screams and disregard. Her lover Bruno, jazz musician, decides to take a chance in Berlin and Alina doesn’t want to be left behind. She takes Marcel to her small hometown in Spain planning to leave him with her father Pascual, who thinks the situation will be temporary, but it turns out to be forever. At the age of twenty, Marcel works at the store. Loneliness has returned to Pascual’s life. All his friends and relatives have disappeared and his grandchild has already a life on his own with girlfriend. He notices that something strange is happening to him. His memory fails, but embarrassed to tell Marcel. Then Pascual gets worse. Marcel takes his grandfather to the doctor. He is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Marcel understands that his dreams fly away.
