Antier noche / Nights Gone By

Alberto Martín Menacho
Switzerland - Spain
Synopsis
Director

Hunting takes place in the countryside of southern Extremadura (Spain) during the cold winter months. Ana (20) and Juan Luis (25) are a young couple in charge of leading the dogs in this ritual event. For some time, Ana has been thinking about leaving her town for the capital. The two must negotiate the terms of their relationship and whether or not they want to stay together. Martín (11), Ana’s younger brother, is growing up in a rural environment alongside the violence of nature. A rupture in the present may evoke the memory of a fracture between an old world on its way out and an emerging modern one. Antier noche is the portrait of this youth.
