Els dies que vindran

The Days to Come

Lluís starts giggling when he takes a look at the pregnancy test, as does his girlfriend Vir. This really isn’t the time for parenthood. Is it? In no time, an abortion is on the agenda. But then Lluís starts expressing his doubts. And that’s how it starts, the nine-month period during which Vir and Lluís are deliriously happy one moment and on verge of disaster the next. Pure and honest, this is an intimate glimpse of future parenthood, not at least because protagonists Maria Rodríguez and David Verdaguer surrender themselves entirely to the process: during shooting, they really are expecting their first child.
