La soledad
Solitary Fragments
Single mother Adela leaves behind her pastoral Basque setting and moves to Madrid. She takes an unfulfilling job to support her new life, in which everything is centered around her infant son. A terrorist attack on a bus will shatter her life, with her eventually having to accept that she has to return to a new daily routine... Antonia owns a small supermarket. The widow leads a quiet life centered around work, her boyfriend Manolo and her beloved daughters, Inés, Nieves and Helena. - In four chapters, Solitary Fragments follows these two women through their lives, showing us the people that matter to them, and slowly tying their lives together.
