tapas
José Corbacho and Juan Cruz's five-sided story takes place in a nontouristy quarter of Barcelona and a tapas bar called Lolo's. The Lolo in question, a profane, fat old growler named Manolo (Ángel de Andrés López), has just chased away his wife. Meanwhile, another single lady, Raquel (Elvira Minquez), is caught in a novel romantic situation—on the one hand, she's been longtime computer pen pals with an Argentine lawyer; on the other, she's flinging it with an avid young kid (Rubén Ochandiano). The film is aptly titled: it's quite salty and occasionally crunchy, and a few people might find it more of a snack than a meal.
