CAMPEONES
This is a 2018 Spanish comedy-drama film directed by Javier Fesser. The director Javier Fesser also created "Mortadelo and Fcommunity ilemon: Mission Implausible" or "The Miracle of P. Tinto". Jesus Vidal, who makes the role of Marin in the film, has recently won a Goya award.
This is a story about a coach of the basketball team CB ESTUDIANTES, called Marco Montes, who is ordered to do service in the form of coaching Los Amigos, a team of people with disabilities. At first, the main character doesn´t likthe punishment, but as the time progressed, he realizes how much he can learn with them. In this film, with a simple plot, it is showed how people with disabilities confront everyday life, and how they support themselves with out looking how different they are between them. About the technical part, I liked so much how they filmed the facial expressions of the characters, using close-up scenes.
