Hunting The Last Wild Man

Candela's family is like 'Little Women' filmed by Almodovar. Five sisters, their mother, lotto-mad grandmother and miserly aunt, all stuck in the same tiny apartment, trying to escape.

There's sister Brandy, busy exploring her true vocation as a sex object. Carmina, who works for a butcher and fears life has no meaning. Bely, nearly eighteen and far more knowing than she ought to be. And Gador, whose latest pregnancy is not enriched by the discovery of her soon-to-be ex-husband's blue-movie collection. Starring himself.

Candela works in a funeral parlour, and one day she is sent the body of the patriarch of a gypsy family. The patriarch's last wish was to be buried with his walking stick, his hat, and a picture of the King. Nothing out of the ordinary, Candela thinks - until she finds a half-kilo of diamonds in the walking stick. And then she meets the dead man's son, the most handsome man she's ever seen . . .
