It's been so long since Javier Fesser delivered a masterpiece of comedy like "El Milagro de P. Tinto" and I was afraid that after the letdown of "Campeones", which was a huge blockbuster and won Best Picture at the Goya awards, Fesser would be tempted to go the easier way to do a smash hit, but he just did not play it safe. This is his very own "Pulp Fiction"... 4 stories that may seem completely disconnected but ultimately add to a whole in a rollercoaster of emotions, twists and turns and dark comedy. A complete must-see, and it's even better if you know nothing beforehand, try to even avoid the trailers, and just let yourself go into Fesser's unique and genius vision.
