Strange River
One summer, Dídac travels by bike along the Danube with his family, starting where the river first emerges in Germany. As they journey downstream, he begins seeing a mysterious boy, Alexander, who appears and disappears in the water. Dídac feels himself changing, drawn toward Alexander and away from his brother Biel. Their mother, Monika, who once took the same trip as a teenager, drifts into memories of a past summer love. When she sees Dídac and Alexander together, she encourages them to continue the journey alone. But as twilight falls, Dídac begins to question who Alexander truly is.
Yakarta
José Ramón Garrido is a former Olympic badminton player who makes a living teaching physical education at a public high school in Vallecas. Divorced and without prospects, Joserra has been drifting for years, but he keeps himself afloat with a daily purpose. Joserra believes he has discovered the diamond that will turn his life around at a school tournament: Mar, a teenage player who could be his ticket to fulfilling his dream of competing in Jakarta, the city where former players like him are respected as stars. Joserra and Mar will have to learn to put up with each other on a journey full of dingy guesthouses, run-down sports centers, and gas stations that takes them through Totana, Ponferrada, Torrelavega, and Tardajos before they reach the Indonesian capital. That is, if they ever get there.
My Friend Eva

But on a business trip to Rome something happens that turns her life upside down. She meets Alex, a scriptwriter who’s spending a few days in the Italian city.

It reignites a fire that had long been extinguished.
