Pepa
Synopsis
Pepa is a fifty-year-old civil servant living with his family in an ordinary district town. Pepa is somewhat henpecked, lacking respect even from his wife, let alone his daughter. Pepa knows that something has to change, and he even knows very well what that "something" is. But! The path to the goal is sometimes very thorny, and so we follow a series of more or less futile and tragicomic attempts by Pepa, the outsider hero, to finally start living his life. Will he manage to find answers to the questions "Why is he in the world? When does real life begin? After birth, after graduation, after first sex, after marriage or children? Or only after death?"
