S’horabaixa

A house in the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range. A couple from Barcelona in pursuit of silence at the height of the summer season. Suddenly, a bit of noise disturbs the peace. Someone has slipped into the garden. Who is it? The daughter they never had? A passing lover? She is trying to escape from something, but doesn’t ask for help. The couple interpret her silence as a licence to adopt her, as though she were an injured cat. But, sooner or later, her pursuers are going to appear. Runner-up Premi Born award, 2016.
