Internationally acclaimed by critics and audiences alike, 'Whiskey' is an intoxicating deadpan comedy reminiscent of the films of Aki Kaurismaki and Jim Jarmusch. Jacobo is a man of dull routine who arrives each day at his run-down sock factory at the same early hour as his faithful assistant, Martha. When his socially adept brother, Herman, pays an unexpected visit, the introverted Jacobo prefers to lie rather than admit his bachelor status, asking the dour but obliging Marta to pose as his wife. The ruse works well enough until Herman invites them on a seaside trip where the strain of the pretence and old sibling rivalries lead to a comically uncomfortable series of events. Featuring beautifully understated performances from Andres Pazos and Mirella Pascual as the mismatches couple, this eccentric, touching and minutely observed film drips with gloriously dry humour.
