And it is that in her career the actress was many types of mother but now she gets into the skin of a victim of evictions: “Restarting such a necessary debate has a lot of value”. And she adds: “In the privilege of making movies, the responsibility also that this entails, not all the films that one makes unfortunately… not everyone can touch on issues like this or important issues that reactivate a necessary debate in our society”. Together with Luis Tosar, Penelope plays a supermarket stocker about to be expelled from her home. For the director, Juan Diego Botto, “from time to time stopping to look at the everyday, at what defines the lives of tens of thousands of people in our country, is worthwhile and art You should pay attention to that”. After seeing him perform in the theater, the actress asked Juan Diego to write a proposal to work together. The result is this film that Cruz produces and which marks the directorial debut of Juan Diego Botto. A story that should be tr as 33 years of friendship. A feature film to claim that good people exist.
