Every time I like that going to the movies without really knowing what I'm going. I mean I walk into the room without being contaminated by so much criticism of supposed experts who issued an opinion that it is still as valid as that of any person to "walk". In one of those I met with "Heroes" directed in 2010 by Pau Freixas and written by himself and Albert Espinosa. Walking in Madrid when I saw it advertised on a marquee. I liked the poster, the trailer on Youtube too, did not need anything else.
A publicist (Alex Brendemühl) traveling by car to a business meeting is the starting point. By chance comes their way desert Cristina (Eva Santolaria). After a series of incidents that give the story package, take direction to Barcelona. His talks and lead discussions on a journey to the past which tells the experiences of a group of 5 friends of 12-13 years, in a Catalan village in the 80's. City boys are only in summer, and always with a common goal, enjoy the holidays and win the race cars (manufactured in house) that is held every year to take away from the village elders magic tree cottage that grants wishes otherwise unattainable.
endearing and funny moments in preparing the car at their meeting secret, hidden love, night trips, and always with the strong friendship based story ... are some of the ingredients used Espinosa Freixas and in adequate amounts. But if we must speak of a staple, that is the wonderful work of each actor. From Alex Brendemühl that perfectly embodies the man absorbed by work and no time to enjoy the little things, Eva Santolaria, which returns to the big screen with a free girl role very believable which has always moved like a fish in water. But between these two actors, and consolidated, we're just 4 guys and a girl acting with the naturalness of the veteran and are not sure (along with Roger Princep) the disclosure and the future of English cinema if they work hard. They are Alex Monner, Mireia Vilapuig, Ferrán Rull, Joan Sorrentino and Marc Balaguer. Even
collaborations are carefully chosen, nothing happens in "Heroes." Lluis Homar, who already in "Paper Birds" was the English nomination for best actor at the time, Emma Suárez, Constantino Romero Nerea Camacho and enhance the quality of the tape.
Heroes has the virtue of those movies that without shortcuts or artificial elements, takes the viewer into a world of memories, feelings apparently lost, or at least hidden. Freixas, and Espinoza had been aware of the quality of their work if they had recorded the faces of the spectators at the end of the projection. Had there been a single common denominator, the result of sincere smiles back memories of childhood and adolescence in which he was not forbidden to dream every day ... and, in one way or another, we are all stars of "Heroes."
