Crash

2008, Benidorm. Nico works with his stepfather Elías in the family construction company. The developer's non-payments lead to bankruptcy and a debt that will haunt them for years. Job insecurity means that the family survives by lying, swindling and profiting from the sale of clandestine excursions to Imserso pensioners on the coast of Alicante. An autofiction that talks about how to alleviate the anguish, tighten the tension and defeat the cataclysm, through the family bond.
