Overview
En Objetos perdidos, Karla Suárez convierte la historia de Giselle en una apasionante búsqueda del lugar que ocupa una mujer en nuestro tiempo, así como de la capacidad creativa y destructiva que esconden las pasiones.
Giselle lo ha sacrificado todo por un sueño: ser bailarina. Un sueño que parece escapársele. Una agria discusión con su novio y el robo de su bolso, en el que junto con su documentación y teléfono desaparecen también objetos que tienen un gran valor sentimental para ella, la dejan sola y perdida en la ciudad de Barcelona, lejos de su Cuba natal. Su única esperanza para salir de esa situación es dar con un amigo cubano del que sólo sabe que vive en algún lugar cercano a la Sagrada Familia. Durante tres días, Giselle duerme en la calle y vaga por los alrededores de la basílica buscando el modo de recuperar su vida, mientras reconstruye su propia historia familiar y hace balance del precio que ha debido pagar por ese sueño huidizo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
In Objetos perdidos (Lost and Found), Karla Suárez turns Giselle's story into an exciting search for the place that a woman occupies in our time, as well as for the creative and destructive capacity hidden by passions.
Giselle has sacrificed everything for a dream: to be a dancer. A dream that seems to escape him. A bitter argument with her boyfriend and the theft of her purse, in which along with her documentation and phone also disappear objects that have a great sentimental value for her, leave her alone and lost in the city of Barcelona, far from her native Cuba. His only hope to get out of that situation is to find a Cuban friend who he only knows lives somewhere near the Sagrada Familia. For three days, Giselle sleeps on the street and wanders around the basilica looking for a way to get her life back, while she reconstructs her own family history and takes stock of the price she has had to pay for that elusive dream.
