Ander (Page 2)

ANDER is a meditative and intimate portrait of a Basque countryman, who despite his advanced age, still lives at home with his sister and his dominant mother. His monotonous life that entails his work at a bicycle factory, his peasant duties shared with his family, and occasional drinking benders, drastically changes following an accident. To keep his family's farmyard going he hires José, a young Peruvian migrant worker. This attractive young man unintentionally alters the long-standing dynamics between Ander, his relatives, and acquaintances. Ander realizes he is developing deep feelings towards José. After his mother's death, he has to decide whether he will transform his life to include him or not…
