Great Spanish Political Satire
9 October 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Insightful movie about post ww2 American politics and it's relation to rest of the world. Depicts a small Spanish town after ww2. Inhabitants are excited about the prospect of the arrival of American fund. They prepare for the event with all their might - based on their perception of what the American's may like. The gala day approaches. The night before people sees dreams depending on their subconscious perception of the Americans. The next day the Americans pass by without stopping. Finally people realise that to rebuild themselves, they will have to depend on themselves and not on any external gifts. They were wrong to wager their hopes on dubious sense of charity of the others.
