Preview: Mes amis espagnols

Synopsis

Born in Bienne in the 1980s, the „Spanish friends“ of filmmaker Adrien Bordone were forced to "return" to Galicia (Spain), their parents‘ homeland, as teenagers. A less-themed migration phenomenon, this return to unfamiliar territory does not get by without troubles. Through their stories, a tender portrait of these men emerges, driven by affection and friendship, as well as a reflection on contemporary exile and manliness.
