愛妻不在家

　　The film tells of how street sweeper Alonso (played by Roberto álamo) and tarot reader Marisa (Malena Alterio), the proprietors of a delicatessen Torres and Fátima (Jordi Sánchez and María Botto), plastic surgeon Calatrava (Julián López) and influencer Vicky (Kira Miró) have booked a house in the middle of nowhere on the Canary Islands, where they hope to spend the best holidays of their lives with their respective broods.　　What they don’t know is that, because of a mistake made by the travel agency they used, they have all rented the same house. And none of them is willing to back out, although there is not much of an alternative anyway, which means that they will be forced to share the same living space for the whole of the summer. The glaring differences between each and every one of the occupants will turn these days into a chaotic series of entertaining and messed-up situations. Despite this whole disaster, they have to learn how to live together and how to understand all of these wildly different people – and, above all else, themselves.

　　一封寫給記者的情書，發生在一家美國報紙的前哨，位于一座虛構的20世紀法國城市，使“法國快訊雜志”上發表的一系列故事栩栩如生。

　　Joachim是家中老三，常遭兩位哥哥作弄，往往情緒失控，幸好父親是精神病院的院長，對他照顧有加。這所院舍專門照料青少年病人，以康服而非囚禁作為目標，是當時德國最先進的有關設施。Joachim在這環境長大，讓他有一個不一樣的童年。他一家視病人如家人，使他體會到所謂「正常」與否只是一線之差。視頻透視主角從小孩至成年的印記，描繪他經歷初戀、父母離異和出國等，各種人生片段有喜有悲，但黑色幽默的風格貫徹始終，一眾專業和業余演員，包括精神障礙人士的演出尤其出色。

　　影片改編自丹尼斯·約翰遜的中篇小說。講述在20世紀初瞬息萬變的美國，伐木工兼鐵路工人羅伯特·格雷尼爾致力于修建橫跨美國的鐵路，經歷了有著意想不到的深度、美麗和奇異的生活。
