The Spanish cinema is in a moment of reflection on the contribution of figures like Santiago Segura, whose recent productions have managed to attract audiences to the movie theaters. Although his family cinema has been praised for motivating people to go to the cinema, it has also been criticized for being overly safe and more of a whitening exercise than real entertainment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

An alternative to Segura’s family comedy<\/h2>\n\n\n

In this context, Los aitas, directed by Borja Cobeaga, presents itself as a valuable alternative that offers a more authentic and moving perspective on family cinema. The film is set in 1980s Euskadi and follows a children’s rhythmic gymnastics team preparing to compete in Berlin<\/strong>, but they face a lack of support from negligent parents, reflecting the realities of unemployment and factory closures of that time.<\/p>\n\n\n
