  • El Agua

    by Elena López Riera

    Catalogue

    It is summer in a small village in south-eastern Spain. A storm threatens to cause the river that runs through it to overflow again. A popular old belief claims that some women are predestined to disappear with each new flood because they have the “water inside”.


    A band of young people is trying to overcome the boring summer in the village by smoking, dancing, and lusting after each other. In this electric atmosphere that precedes the storm, Ana and José live a love affair until the storm bursts.
