Miguel Tristán

An allegory of political oppression under Franco, with a plot alternating between narrative sequences and dream-like moments styled after the Spanish avant garde. Padrós employs a range of musical forms including opera, scores, and choreography to underscore a plot featuring a group of dropouts living in a junkyard who try to re-integrate with "The System" as represented by a party.

Adrián, a businessman who runs his wife's family industry, begins an affair with Marisa, an employee at his office. Marisa tries to blackmail her mature boss who has fallen into her trap. But the plot takes an unexpected turn, and it turns out that he is the one who dominates the situation and uses the young woman for his own benefit.
