Description

Five stories about hilarious, painful, and often extremely clumsy misadventures in life that are sometimes perhaps more recognizable than you might like… Sometimes you experience something that you wish no one knew about, or even better: that you could purge from your memory completely. The five comic stories in ‘Historias para no contar’ are an ode to those moments when you wish you had had a little more control over your emotions or when, against your better judgment, you continued with something—a relationship, perhaps?--you know you should have stopped.

‘Slickly, amusingly and sometimes thought-provokingly, the film delivers five witty relationship stories about bourgeois Barcelonans…The stories unfold in a sealed, sumptuously lit world of microtheatres, David Bowie exhibitions and good restaurants, representing a kind of middle-class fantasy that’s increasingly under threat.’—Jonathan Holland, Screen Daily
