'Wrinkles' ('Arrugas')
Screening of Wrinkles at the Ottawa International Animation Festival.
- Wrinkles (Arrugas)
- Spain, 2011, 89 min, by Ignacio Ferreras.
- Based on Paco Roca’s award-winning comic book, this moving tale follows the friendship between Emilio and Miguel, two aged gentlemen shut away in a nursing home. Emilio, who is new to the home and in the early stages of Alzheimer’s, is aided by Miguel and other residents. Without their help, he would end up on the dreaded top floor of the home, known to residents as the ‘lost causes’ floor. Their wild plan infuses their otherwise tedious day-to-day routine with humour, adventure and tenderness. Others might see their lives as ending, but for Emilio and Miguel, life is just beginning.
