Barataria - English Trailer

We cross the streets of a new, unfinished town, with ochre brick walls, in the middle of the fields of La Mancha. A few neighbors, of all ages, invite us in and tell us about their projects, their hopes, each in turn revealing a way of living in this village-like town stigmatized by the crisis. Since its construction, a first generation of children has grown up here, now in their teens. El Quiñon is beginning to write its own history. What was once known as "the ghost town" has gradually filled up. Against the backdrop of national elections, I attempt to sketch an intimate vision of Spain, ten years after the crisis. In "Spain's youngest city", it's the whimsy and spontaneity of its inhabitants, and the bonds they forge with one another, that enable them to take control of an uncertain future.
