Sonrisas Invisibles (Spanish)
What happens when life forces you out of your comfort zone and there’s no turning back? A stark reminder of the horror we lived through in 2020.
Inma and Rafa try to save their relationship with an unexpected trip to empty Spain. However, the sudden declaration of the State of Alarm due to Coronavirus traps them in the middle of nowhere, forcing them to rethink their present and their future.
Sonrisas invisibles defies convention with a cinematic, fast-paced dual narrative: a literary game in which one of the narrators breaks the fourth wall to interact with the reader through ironic commentary and an exceptional soundtrack. A novel that serves as a raw, intimate, and deeply human social mosaic. A direct portrait of precariousness, technological claustrophobia, and the chaos we experienced when the world came to a standstill.
