When he sees a motorcycle go over the side of the boardwalk at San Sebastian, crashing onto the beach, Jota goes to see what happened. He discovers that the vehicle was being driven by an attractive young woman. He calls an ambulance and gets onto it with her. When the emergency medical staff discover that she has amnesia, Jota takes advantage of the situation to claim that she's been living with him for the past few years. After she gets out of the hospital, the young woman accompanies him to a camping resort called The Red Squirrel, and they have a number of adventures involving her obnoxious husband, who has been looking for her, and an equally obnoxious campsite neighbor.~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

The red squirrel
Very good dark romantic comedy.
Hollywood doesn't have a monopoly on the best stories, or the best storytellers - though I wouldn't be surprised if an inferior American remake of this gripping Spanish thriller showed up in a couple of years. Written and directed by debut filmmaker Jorge Sanchez-Cabezudo, The Night of the Sunflowers involves a serial rapist and murderer, cops, revenge, extortion� But what's really compelling about this yarn is the ingenious way it's been put together so we're left in the dark about how Read more
