Betwixt and between; questions and shadows … a sense of the strange permeates this collection. These films in turn touch on elements of the supernatural, the mythic, and the apocalyptic in their evocation of new, melancholic genre spaces where histories are drawn and tested, and futures are never guaranteed.

La Cañada Real, Europe's largest slum on the outskirts of Madrid, has been without electricity for over a year. In the firelight, Toni, a 13 year-old boy, discovers that his best friend is leaving forever. Amongst Roma legends of a possible future, Toni looks for a way to stay connected to him.
