Flores de Papel / Paper Flowers

Simplemente deja que ocurra
> Silvia Ferrase construye con mimo una historia que mezcla ingredientes trágicos y cómicos para hablar no solo de relaciones sino también de realidades sociales difíciles como la drogodependencia, los maltratos o la vida de barrio. Un canto a la generosidad y al altruismo en las comunidades vecinales, donde se puede sufrir y llorar, pero siempre acompañado. Y donde el amor se convierte en el verdadero milagro.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Just let it happen.

Lara lives in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods on the outskirts of Madrid. She struggles to go to school, work and take care of the only family she has left: her grandmother, Carmen, who has Alzheimer's. Still, Lara isn't alone; she has help managing her chaotic and demanding schedule from Olimpia and Irene, her neighbors and best friends. But a chance run- in with Saúl, an architect planning a series of community improvement projects, brings shadows of the past that promise to change Lara's life even more. Will she survive what's coming?

Silvia Ferrase lovingly crafts a story that blends tragedy and comedy to give insights not only into relationships, but also thorny social issues such as drug addiction, squalor and abuse. The result is an ode to community, where you may suffer hardship but never alone, and love shines forth as the real miracle.
