Penélope
“What if Penelope was not waiting Ulysses?”
Synopsis
Carme is the centennial seamstress of a small place among mountains. She sews and unthreads the threads. She has the character of a hard but heartfelt generation. Ramon returns to the village after thirty years of absence. But no one recognizes him. Not even Carme. A return that, beyond the real, evokes the impossibility of returning home, no longer as a hero, but even as someone who can be recognized by his own.
