Nights Gone By

Synopsis

Juan Francisco is twelve years old and lives in a village in southern Spain, surrounded by thousand-year-old oak trees and solar panels. Through hunting with greyhounds, he discovers the close relationship between humans and animals. Santi and Antonio are part of a youthful modernity that coexists with the oldest of traditions. Pepa is a young mother who works as a seasonal worker in the slaughterhouse. The choral portrait of these young people reveals a land of hares and donkeys, love stories, fires and rave parties.
