Pablo (El Bola) is a 12-year old boy raised in a violent and unforgiving environment. The film poignantly parallels the lives of a caring father unable to connect with his willful son, and that of distant Pablo and his abusive father who is incapable of giving him the love he needs, replacing it with something far more sinister. old through both the children's and adults' points of view. Achero Mana's El Bola is a stirring narrative.

Achero Mañas's directorial debut, El Bola, propelled him to the forefront of a new class of groundbreaking Spanish director. The winner of four prestigious Goya Awards (Spain's Oscars®) including Best Picture and Best Emerging Director, Mañas's film vividly brings viewers into a world of fathers and sons in which perception doesn't always match reality. Mañas urgently and honestly addresses this subject through both the children's and the adults' point of view. Film Movement is proud to present Achero Mañas's El Bola to you.
