Touchol (1990)

Overview

As in his earlier films, Alvaro Bizzarri tells the story of a seasonal worker in "Touchol" and describes his torn life: here his place of work, there his home and family. Sensitively captured images show a young foreigner at work on a motorway construction site, at his place of residence in a noisy, cramped shanty town, and in his difficult search for new accommodation.
