Description
Village Film Night - Fin de Siglo (End of Century)
Guest: Sebastián Arcos
Fin de Siglo (Ende des Jahrhunderts)
Director: Lucio Castro
2019 – 84 min
In Spanish with English subtitles
Two men meet in Barcelona and spend a day drifting through the city together under the summer sun. As the hours unfold, a quiet realization emerges: this is not their first encounter. They met once before, twenty years ago.
Fin de Siglo (End of the Century) follows a thirty-something Argentine poet and a Spaniard living in Berlin as a chance meeting turns into a budding romance shaped by memory, time, and desire. Set against the warmth and stillness of Barcelona, the film gently blurs past and present, inviting the viewer to linger in moments where connection feels both new and strangely familiar.
Tender, sensual, and deeply human, Lucio Castro’s debut is an invitation to reflect on the people who pass through our lives and those who, somehow, find their way back
