Description
In Person Nicolás PeredaIntroduction Robert Koehler
(Juntos). Few films capture the awkwardness of a young adulthood spent with no funds, no fun, and no love better than Pereda’s Together, which follows three housemates dealing with an apartment from hell. Gabino and Luisa share a flat with their friend Francisco, their youth going to waste in an eternal battle with a faulty plumbing line. Here, three’s company, but two’s a crowd: alone, Gabino and Luisa have little to say. A Tsai Ming-liang-like deadpan comedy where silence, not conversation, speaks volumes, Together says more about the end of romance than any slacker rom-com, and in about a tenth of the words.
Written by Pereda. Photographed by Alejandro Coronado. With Gabino
Rodríguez, Luisa Pardo, Francisco Barreiro. (73 mins, In Spanish with English subtitles, Color, DigiBeta, From FiGa Films)
