THE NIGHT OF SUNFLOWERS (2006)

Cast

Plot

In the impoverished mountainous Las Hurdes region of Spain the locals are desperate for income to keep their villages alive and hope that the chance discovery of a cave might provide the lottery ticket to a tourist industry. Two professional cavers arrive, one with girlfriend in tow, and this sets off a series of events, including rape and murder, that embroil several of the characters that we have met. Life is absurd and events can be random in a world where we all wear self-serving blinkers. An interesting debut movie; four or five stars, why not make up your own mind?
