Alcarràs

Another hot and sticky summer in Alcarrás, in the most profound Catalonia, a village that is famous for its peaches' harvest. This year will be different for the Solé family. The members of the family will discover that some tractors are uprooting the trees. The patriarch of the family remains in silence. After the death of the landlord, the agreement they had with the old owner ends up outdated. The heirs want to stop renting the property to sell it to a solar panel central. Facing the loss of the land, all members of the family Solé will get together to sow the last peaches. Summer will face the point of view of the three sibilins of 16, 13 and 8 years-old that will be in charge of cheering up the family as the older generations will be unable to assume the loss.

The cast includes the actors Jordi Pujol Dolcet, Anna Otín, Xenia Roset, Albert Bosch, Ainet Jounou, Josep Abad, Montse Oró, Carles Cabós and Berta Pipó. Carla Simón directs and together with her signs the script Arnau Vilaró.

'Alcarrás' has won the Golden Bear at the seventy-second edition of the Berlinale and has become the first Catalan film to receive this award.

The film has also been hailed by media such as Fotogramas, which says that "Carla Simón translates into images what many neorealist filmmakers pursued relentlessly: the truth".
