Black Bread

In the harsh post-war years' Catalan countryside, Andreu, a child that belongs to the losing side, finds the corpses of a man and his son in the forest. The authorities want his father to be made responsible of the deaths, but Andreu tries to help his father by finding out who truly killed them. In this search, Andreu develops a moral consciousness against a world of adults fed by lies. In order to survive, he betrays his own roots and ends up finding out the monster that lives within him.

Reviews

Andres Gomez

A different story in the after times of the Spanish Civil War. Cleverly, it mixes a thriller with the destruction of the naïve childhood of the main character. Who is good and who is bad, who is true and who lies is unclear as the events that lead to the current situation. A must to see in now...
