La línea recta / The Straight Line

José María de Orbe
Spain
Synopsis
Director
Noelia is not yet thirty. She lives in a Barcelona suburb. By night, she works in a petrol station. By day, she distributes advertising fliers to houses. She has no free time. Noelia quits her night job. She leaves the house she shares with Rosa. She never says goodbye to anyone. She leaves neither trail nor trace. She doesn?t look for or have any friends. Noelia is an anonymous character. Just another of the thousands of youngsters in the big city. Around her, Rosa, Lucas, the boss... All with their little conflicts, their little dreams, struggling to survive by the day. La línea recta is an urban story of which the heroine, Noelia, behaves like the city in which she lives, growing and progressing in an imaginary straight line taking her from one job to another, from one house to another, with no fixed direction, unstopping, tirelessly, and with no set course.
