2nd in series of Spanish cinema screened at Newcastle University.

A film that combines romance and passion with hard-hitting contemporary realism about the immigration frontline in southern Spain. A lethal cocktail of desire and suspicion, need and greed is concocted as two lovers fight to secure a better existence for immigrant agricultural workers.

Free screening courtesy of the film library of the Spanish Departamento de Cooperación
y Promoción Cultural Exterior (AECID).
