Socarrat
Synopsis
We all have secrets. We all have family. We all search for happiness. What if we share our secrets and search for happiness together?
Film notes
Socarrat is the portrait of a dysfunctional but united and happy family, whether they like it or not.
A story in which the characters act with compulsive honesty and painful sincerity, unveiling their most intimate secrets for us to witness that, almost always, appearances are deceiving and the key to happiness is the understanding and protection of those who love us. No matter what we do, no matter how we behave.
Socarrat is the appreciation of what lies beneath, the hidden and concealed.
Socarrat as the burnt rice at the bottom of a paella, the bit you have to scrape at in order to savour. For many, the best bit.
