A Esmorga

Based on Eduardo Blanco Amor’s same-title novel

A esmorga is a tense and intense 24-hour account of three men’s lives, three befuddled mates that walk through live in chaos, through repressed and misleading sex, while closing doors and throwing the keys away, as if they wished to leave everything behind, walking towards their own doom.
