Synopsis:

An out-of-nowhere docu gem chronicling the civil disobedience of a group of unemployed men in Madrid in 2001, "The Iguazu Effect" is a Spanish incursion into an underside of contempo politics that rarely makes it to either screen or tube domestically. Thought-provoking and with moments of emotional clout, this first cinema outing by tube helmer Pere Joan Ventura is wholly left-wing partisan, but its idealism, and the commitment and passion of its characters to their ultimately doomed cause, generate an unexpectedly feel-good experience. Result could turn up in politically themed fest sidebars.
