Private Project

Until the last day

In a normal day, Cecilia visits the grave of their daughter Gloria while Miguel takes care of the premises of their apartment, until the projection of a documentary portrait filmed by their grandson months after Gloria's death makes them both narrate their perspectives on that event, unraveling in the process the problems that they have not yet been able to overcome in their 60 years of marriage.

Director Statement

- English-
When I discovered Cinema, I discovered life. I think is the most philosophical and metaphysical thing, because when we see or make movies, we are really talking with feelings, and it's just not this talk, but also, the particularly of seeing reflecting in what we see, in what we feel... this is the most beautiful cinema's thing, we can see others in ourselves.
Until The Last day is a movie, about my family, about our problems, who are problems of every family around the word. Time is something we can't avoid, and I always have seen that there are an amazing story in my grandparents relationship. I think I did this movie because I want to keep them alive, with me, with the cinema who did everything to me, with the people who have lived similar things... It is also the real reason, I make movies: I need to keep our experience in other's people experiences.

Esta película es sobre mi familia, sobre nuestros problemas, que creo, son los problemas de todas las familias en el mundo. El tiempo es algo que no se puede evitar, y a lo largo de los años siempre he visto que hay una historia increíble en la relación de mis dos abuelos. Creo que hice esta película porque quiero conservarlos con vida, conmigo, con el cine que me dio todo, con la gente que ha vivido y vive situaciones similares a la de la película. Esa es la verdadera razón por la que hago cine, necesito guardar nuestras experiencias en las experiencias de otras personas
