What the Future Holds
Created by Alejandro Hernández, Mariano Barroso
A morally compromised character study set in Franco's Spain, where a desperate migrant's coercion into informancy becomes a descent into complicity and moral corruption.
In 1966, Justo Gil arrives in Barcelona as a migrant with the purpose of gaining enough money to give his sick mother the best care. His great charisma allows him to socialize with the youngsters of the upper-class, until an unexpected turn of events makes him become an informer of the political police, in order to pursue communist cells.
