Director's Statement

WRINKLES tells the story of Emilio, an old man who suffers from Alzheimer’s and is sent to live in a Spanish care home, and of Miguel, Emilio’s room-mate, an Argentinian with no family of his own. There are other characters and stories intertwined with this main story, but the film really centers on the relationship that develops between the two main characters in this drama that also has humour and fantasy. I think it is a special and an emotional feature precisely because it is not a film about something unusual or extraordinary, but it deals with things that happen to everybody, in their ordinary lives. More than anything I think WRINKLES is a film that reminds people of their own stories and their experiences with relatives who might have suffered from some form of dementia, who spent their last years in a care home or who just see how their parents get old, so it is something very close to people.
