In the district of Gracia, in Barcelona, a nasty old woman shares a flat with a young man, non-conformist. The guy is struggling to find his place in the world. Neither of them let themselves being intimidated, though she holds the power and the young only illusions. The old woman has given up her dreams and the young man is discovering them. A perpetual fight without truce, although both need themselves. Humor, tenderness, agility, great neighbors, a neighborhood of young people, a beautiful girl and a powerful sound track. The positive side of life.
In a small Catalan village take advantage of the visit of an ecclesiastical authority of Rome, during vacations, to organize a conference on the topic of religion and sex. This causes the people to divide into two camps, those who favor and those against the "Congress", until finally after a series of negotiations between both sides, we arrive at consensus. A large mosaic of characters carry the story to end happily, through critical situations with the conservative church.
As a photographer, Colita is an undisputed master of the portrait of 20th-century Barcelona. In her garden, she sips tea with her friends, all of them very important women: writers, singers and actresses filled with wit and exuberance. Together, they revisit their memories of intensely lived years: the last two decades of the Franco dictatorship. Just enough to complete the image through the lens of her camera. There is no distance in her art.
