Cages

Fed up with her husband’s physical and psychological abuse, Concha steals a large sum of money to run away with daughter Adela. Concha runs over her husband during a chase after being caught red-handed. On the road to freedom, they meet a series of colorful characters who are also trying to escape from their own cages. Nicolás Pacheco’s cheeky and loving portrait of Andalucia’s gypsy community mixes film noir and road movie with a slight dash of absurdist comedy thrown in for good measure.
