MUBI Screening: Alcarràs (15)

Carla Simón’s luminous feature—and Spanish submission to the Oscars— is a vibrant generational portrait of farming life. As the clash between tradition and modernity becomes harder to ignore, a family searches for solutions under the baking sun.

In a small Catalonian village, the peach farmers of the Solé family spend every summer together picking fruit from their orchard. But when plans arise to install solar panels and cut down trees, the members of this tight-knit group suddenly face eviction — and the loss of far more than their home.

Please note that this film is rated 15+ and includes brief depictions of drug usage and strong language. 

Presented as part of a film series exploring folk themes curated by MUBI, including Harvest (2024 – UK, GER, USA) and The Juniper Tree (1993 – ICELAND).
