Review of Solas

Solas (1999)
8/10
traditional low class rural Spain in town
5 July 2012
Basically a feminist tinted story of a lower class rural woman living in urban setting.

Maria a single 35 year old hardened from an abusive father has moved to a city where she works as a maid. Her very traditional mother comes to town when her father has a serious operation. The mother Rosa stays with her--their estranged lives coming together. A elderly neighbor becomes important.

The characters while a little ideal for instance the Mother Rosa is a bit of a saint--and the neighbor a little too good to be true are none the less very engaging and come to life.

It is an enjoyable character study. You will remember these characters and like them especially the mother Rosa and the elderly neighbor.

Recommmend. Fun for the Spanish setting as well.
