The plane has departed from Madrid on its way to Mexico City, but has developed a fault and is circling Toledo, waiting for another airport’s runway to become available. “The passengers are going around in circles, they don’t know where they’re going to land or how they’re going to land. And in real life we don’t know how we’re going to get out of this [economic depression], who will be in command, what the risks are and how dangerous it is. For the Spanish people it’s a very clear metaphor for society.”

Please join us!
