All the Women (Todas las Mujeres)

Directed by Mariano Barroso, Spain, 89 minutes. Winner of the 2014 Goya (Spanish Oscars) for best adapted screenplay. Official selection at the 2013 Festival de Malaga. Watch trailer.

The much-honoured Spanish actor Eduard Fernández is riveting in director Mariano Barroso’s incisive, insightful drama, adapted from a TV mini-series. Middle-aged veterinarian Nacho, a man in crisis, embarks on an ill-advised scheme to steal cattle. When his plans go awry, he turns to six women who have been important in his life for succour.

Engrossing… The most tightly-focused and emotionally penetrating film in a quietly formidable body of work from a director whose virtues continue to go largely unrecognized… A scaled-back, sharp-eyed, David Mamet-inspired deconstruction of the fragile psyches of Spanish and other males, anchored in Fernandez’s memorable central performance.
