Watching: When The Night Falls

Overview

The worldwide elder population is growing fast and put aside. José, an alcoholic retiree, tries to feel useful; Víctor, a peculiar doctor, follows the presidential candidate in search for justice; and Braulio, a kind grandfather, mourns his wife's sudden death. The film explores the other face of Mexican masculinity that, in loneliness, stop executing their societal imposed role as providers. It is an introspective journey into remorse, loneliness and death.
