Profile of Barrio
The plot of Barrio centers around kids in trouble, suburban life, and juvenile delinquency. It is a drama and foreign movie. In approach, it is serious and realistic. Barrio takes place, at least partly, in the suburbs and at a high school. The setting is Madrid. It happens in the 1990s.
Summary of Barrio
Set in the writer-director's hometown of Madrid, this semi-autobiographical coming-of-age tale from Fernando Leon de Aranoa (FAMILIA) follows three young men on the cusp of adulthood as they become more conscious of their respective futures over the course of one heat-soaked summer. Angst-filled but not without a healthy dose of humor, this moody drama swept the 1999 Goya Awards, taking home top prizes such as Best New Actress (Marieta Orozco), Best Screenplay, and Best Director.
