Overview |
Silvia looks dazzling in the old VHS footage of her wedding in the early 1980s—she's a beautiful woman about to embark on a promising future with a diplomat husband, and a comfortable house to live in. The home videos that follow show more highlights from her life: her first wedding anniversary, her daughters growing up, and the farewell party at the embassy. Meanwhile, the audio commentary offers a very different reality. The film's director María Silvia Esteve is the middle one of Silvia's daughters, and she and her siblings talk about their parents' gradual descent into a spiral of angry clashes, psychological problems and prescription drugs. By recounting events from their childhood, they try to get a handle on what went wrong in their family. And they wonder why their mother, with whom they had a very close relationship, never managed to improve the situation or leave their father. |

Overview |
En un intento fallido por reconstruir la vida de su madre Silvia, su hija busca darle sentido a una historia impregnada de violencia y negación, experimentando con las imágenes borrosas de sus padres y los recuerdos inconsistentes de sus hermanas. El filme trata sobre las divergencias que surgen en la reconstrucción de la memoria de Silvia. Es el retrato del vínculo entre una madre y sus hijas, y de las palabras no dichas que encuentran nuevos significados más allá del dolor. |
