Western


Directors: Manuel Poirier
Starring: Sergi Lopez, Sacha Bourdo
Year: 1997

On a trip through the French countryside, Spanish shoe salesman Paco picks up the unassuming Russian hitchhiker Nino. Their relationship gets off to a rocky start, as Nino begins a chain of events that causes Paco to lose his car and his job. But when the pair, penniless and directionless, take off for a three-week hitchhiking journey together, they discover their common struggles in life, love and what it feels like to be an outsider in this heartwarming, romantic road comedy.

Comments: sentimental, but amusing. Nice story about how we all come from different places and origins.

Recommended.
