CGiii Comment

After a long, unrequited, silent embrace, Clara leaves longtime boyfriend Xavi standing alone in a city square. But breaking up is so hard to do - is it really over? What next? Clara and Xavi endeavor to answer these questions as they recover from their split. Set in a Spanish 'any city', the film follows Xavi, a young man mesmerized by television game shows, and Clara, unsure of her recent decision to leave the comfort of the relationship. Living with mom doesn't make things easier as Clara finds out while on the phone in the bathroom. By moving on and using new experiences as the light at the end of the tunnel, both navigate through a sea of new potential - or is it a maze of crazies? Colorful characters abound in what tastes like a slice of life with a side of nuts.
