Synopsis

'Techo y comida' tells the story of Rocio (Natalia de Molina) a single mother who is going through really serious economic difficulties. Although she has no job and barely has enough money to eat, she hides the seriousness of their situation to avoid embarrassment at all costs and to keep the custody of her eight year old son Adrian (Jaime Lopez). Both survive thanks to the generosity of a neighbor, María (Mariana Cordero), who provides them her help without a second thought. Then, when they thought things could not get worse, the owner of the apartment where they lives, also burdened with a money problem, decides to report Rocío for not paying the rent. Juan Miguel del Castillo writes and directs this film which also features Mercedes Hoyos, Gaspar Campuzano and Natalia Roig.
