'El Pais Del Miedo' related to school violence with the crisis

• Seventh film screened in the Malaga fair
• The film is in a radiant theme after the event at Barcelona

Hours later bloody nightmare lived in an Institute of Barcelona, it is impossible that a film that reflects a problem so unfortunately omnipresent as the school violence is envisioned in a normal way.

If to receive on Monday at the Malaga Festival, the news of the murder of the teacher were not few people who recalled the attack on a teacher in the heroes of the evil, which entered in competition on Saturday, the start of the competition on the day of Tuesday has deployed a fatally timely coincidence. 'El pais del miedo ' delves into the Spain's fear and the crisis from a case of school violence. The debut of Francisco Espada portrays recent psychosis caused by the economic situation with a case of 'buyllying' as a trigger for the screenplay inspired by the novel by Isaac Rosa.

Nonetheless, and with the harassment to a minor in an Institute of Badajoz as starting point and essential resource for the development of the plot, the director of the film, Francisco Espada, preferred to qualify it as "a social thriller". "Barcelona has been a terrible news that gets in front of the present atremendous topic, but I would say that mine is not a film about bullying, but a social thriller about how fear conditioned our behavior within the society".

"Start with the case of bullying at school and it becomes a case of harassment of a child to an adult who requests money, is a metaphor on this consumer society, so designed to compete and become the first, and the frustrations that causes", added Espada to refer to the approach which has been the seventh feature film in the competition this year in the Malaga official section.

In 'El Pais Del Miedo', its predictable portrait of the Spain plunged into psychosis of the crisis is saved, somehow, by the action of José Luis García Pérez, absolute protagonist in the skin of a father who is emotionally destabilized to discover that your child is being harassed at the public Institute in which his wife embodied by Cristina Plazas, didn't register it.

Beset by a violent child, Garcia Perez roams defeated fear and lying in a tape - which also involved as Eduardo Velasco or Kiti Manver - that is riddled with allusions to the current Spain. Cuts in the education, the world of the civil service, the insecurity, August wanting to make private security companies, or labour exploitation covered by the scythe of the you are, among other issues.
