About
As far as they can remember, the Solé family have spent every summer picking the peaches from their orchard in Alcarràs, a small village in Spain. But this year’s crop could be their last, as they face eviction. The new plans for the land include cutting down the peach trees and installing solar panels, which causes a rift within the large tight-knit family. For the first time, they face an uncertain future and risk losing more than their home.
Directed by Carla Simón featuring a non-professional cast of actors starring Jordi Pujol Dolcet, Anna Otin, Xènia Roset, Albert Bosch and Ainet Jounou.
The film was selected as the Spanish entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 95th Academy Awards in additional to becoming the first Catalan-language film to win the Golden Bear at the 72nd Berlinale.
