Familia

Monument incontournable de Barcelone, l’édifice de la Sagrada Familia, classé au patrimoine mondial de l’Unesco, reste nimbé de mystère. À sa mort en 1926, l'architecte Antoni Gaudí était loin de l'avoir achevé - il ne l’est toujours pas à ce jour. Une enquête digne du "Da Vinci code"…

En vísperas de un día especial, los lazos familiares se muestran frágiles ante el sentimiento compartido de una gran ausencia. El tío Manuel, un hombre muy especial, está dedicado a sacar adelante a sus sobrinos adolescentes y ayudar a su cuñado, sindicalista y desempleado.

Gaudi left us a spectacular work. An unfinished creation: the Sagrada Familia. A huge, senseless cathedral project, whose rules and spirit must be understood in order to be completed. A challenge that has occupied the successors of the great Catalan architect for more than a century.

In Daniel Burman's Family Law, Perelman Jr., like his father before him, is an attorney. But rather than live in his father's shadow, Perelman Jr. chooses to work as a teacher in a law school. His life is good, if somewhat dull. Things change for the better when he pursues a beautiful former student, a pilates instructor named Sandra, and they have a son together. When his office is unexpectedly closed for several weeks, he doesn't tell Sandra, instead making visits to his son at school and his father at work. As his father begins to reach out to him with subtle urgency, he's forced to question his roles as father, son, and husband, and to contemplate what lies ahead.

Perelman es un joven abogado que todavía no sabe muy bien quién va a ser cuando sea grande. En la búsqueda por definir su identidad, acepta, aunque con cierta aprensión, lo ya heredado, lo inmodificable, lo que él ya es. Pero lo que le cuesta hacer, y mucho, es la otra parte: continuar construyendo su identidad precisamente a partir de lo que se puede cambiar, de aquello que pueda diferenciarlo de su padre, de lo que hay por descubrir.
