Journey to a Mother's Room
Celia Rico Clavellino : 2018
Viaje al cuarto de una madre
Leonor is keen to leave home. She's just broken up with her partner and isn't happy in the job her mother Estrella has secured for her in a tailor's workshop. She wants to escape the small-town mentality of southern Spain and experience the big-city life in London. But leaving her mother when they are both still reeling from the recent death of a loving husband and caring father is not easy. Whatever decision Leonor makes will have important consequences. A detailed examination of the minutiae of the myriad nuances inherent in family life. The film delicately handles the challenges of generational difference in a close emotional relationship, where so much remains unspoken and nothing can be taken for granted. Celia Rico Clavellino's feature debut premiered in the New Directors section at San Sebastián International Film Festival 2018 where it won the Youth Jury Award, and had its UK premiere at London Film Festival 2018.
