Retratos de la orilla

A group of thirtysomethings meets regularly in a park to follow the ritual of a centenarian lady: narrate the stories that are hidden behind the images of an old album. With this invocation to transcend the familiar and the remote of the lives of others, Portraits of the shore opens, a collection of nine stories charged with the present and bathed in a poignant realism, but with an irony and lyrical power capable of unleashing small fires. . Ghosts and Wi-Fi networks coexist in them; handwritten letters and hashtags; unknown and final homes full of horizon, by the sea. Starring women who live on the border between the past and the future, aware that their decisions are as extreme as they are universal; whose certainties are revealed to us here with the sharpness and brilliance of a photographic image.
