Violeta no coge el ascensor (Violeta does not take the lift)
Marta GarcíaFresh as the beer cane that soothes a summer afternoon, Mamen Díaz's debut feature raises with the lightness of a Rohmer of the 21st century the eternal millennial dissatisfaction, in a world full of possibilities that makes it very difficult to choose just one. Violeta knows this well, a twenty-year-old who does not know very well how to use her talent and grace, while she spends the summer in Madrid, as an intern at a publishing house, plugged into the fan with her roommate and dodging the heat between affairs that far from clarifying doubts multiply them. The film is a low-cost cinephile version of Hannah takes the stairs (Joe Swanberg, 2007), with dialogues full of naturalness and sparkle, a luminous interpretation of Violeta Rodríguez, with Madrid buses, its forty degrees in the shade and its interiors full of gotelé.
