ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

osirisnl I really enjoyed this film. A very simple film photography wise, which portraits the crude financial crisis for some social groups in Spain.Watch this film and submerge yourself in the South of Spain and join this single parent struggle to survive.The way this film manages very difficult subjects is admirable. It is uncomfortable to talk about the; to watch them on this film is something else.I really recommend it !

Ross Hiatt Directed by up and coming director and writer Juan Miguel del Castillo, Techo y Comida is a drama that depicts the life of a young woman and her child amidst poverty and depression during the employment crisis of Spain in 2012. With 8 months' rent overdue and little to no food to put on the table, Rocio seeks to find a way to support her son, Adrian, and stay afloat in an increasingly difficult environment. As a single uneducated mother, Rocio struggles to maintain a side job to put more than a piece of bread and hot dogs on the table for her young child. With the help of her well-meaning neighbor Maria, Rocio hangs by a thread in both her sanity and her ability to support Adrian. Taking place during the housing and financial crisis of Spain during the late 2000s and early 2010s, Juan Miguel del Castillo seeks to break the barrier between film and political actions. Widely unsupported by many political entities in Spain, Techo y Comida represented one of few films to critically commentate on the financial crisis and what it was doing to families like Rocio's. Jerez de la Frontera is where the family is located, and during this time, one of the areas in Spain with the highest unemployment rate. This movie was interesting from the get go. The director uses a style of filming unlike many others that cut from scene to scene; using painfully elongated interactions that you hope will end sooner rather than later due to the depressive atmosphere. The acting done by Natalia de Molina (Rocio) is impeccable, earning her the prestigious GOYA award in 2016 for best female actress. The fear, anxiety, and depression felt by Rocio are enough to hook you in for a bitter tale about life as an unemployed single mother.

Antonio Demure drama about the life of a single unemployed mother in a working- class neighborhood. Jerez de la Frontera, one of the areas with more unemployment of Spain is the scenario where this story about struggle and despair is located. The film is not known for its complexity or technical part, but by its sincerity and the excellent interpretation of Natalia de Molina, which earned her the most important award in Spanish cinema, the Goya award. Some minor roles as the son or the neighbor Maria end up completing a short but very successful cast. Advisable to understand the situation in which the economic crisis has left many areas of Spain and other countries.
