By turns comic, poignant, absurd and profoundly moving, beautifully shot, and featuring great performances from non professional actors, El Alma de las Moscas tells the story of the two sons of Evaristo de la Sierra, who never met their father, and who's mutual existence they both ignored, until Evaristo sends them a letter inviting them to his funeral. When the Brothers meet at a train station, where to their surprise the train hasn't gone by in years, it is the beginning of their wanderings through barren landscapes, punctuated by chance encounters with the weird... and wonderful characters that inhabit that land, such as a suicidal narcoleptic; a man with serious anger issues towards funerals; a bunch of thieving musicians and a young woman in love with the spring, who try, in one way or another, to guide them in their journey to their father’s funeral through paths made of memories, fables, solitude and dreams.

A humorously quirky, low budget road movie from first time Spanish director Jonathan Cenzual Burley. After learning of their father's death - who neither had met - half-brothers Miguel (Javier Sáez) and Nero (Andrea Calabrese) meet for the first time at a derelict train station, and soon embark on a voyage of self-discovery as they travel across the Spanish countryside to attend their father's funeral. Along the way the mismatched pair form a fraternal bond, all the while waxing philosophically as their journey brings them into contact with an endless stream of oddball, larger-than-life characters.
