Conversaciones con mamá

Mother is eighty two years old and Jaime, her son, is fifty. They both live in very different worlds. Jaime has a wife, two sons, a lovely home, two cars and a mother-in-law to look after.

Mother manages to get by on her own and bears herself with dignity in her old age. But one day the company where Jaime works throws him out because of staff redeployment.

This lamentable situation leads him to make drastic decisions since he cannot keep up his style of life. When Jaime goes to the flat to tell his mother that the only thing he can do is sell it, something happens which destroys all his hopes and which is going to bring a radical change to his life; his mother has a partner who is going to come and live with her in her flat whatever it costs and whoever suffers.

Mamá tiene ochenta y dos años y su hijo Jaime, cincuenta. Ambos viven en mundos muy diferentes. Jaime tiene mujer, dos hijos, una hermosa casa, dos coches y una suegra que atender.

Mamá se las arregla sola y sobrelleva su vejez con dignidad. Pero un día la empresa para la que trabaja Jaime lo deja en la calle por razones de ajuste de personal. La lamentable situación lo lleva a decisiones drásticas porque no puede mantener su tren de vida.

Cuando Jaime va al apartamento para decirle a su madre que no tiene más remedio que venderlo, sucede algo que desmorona todas sus expectativas y que va a producirle un cambio radical en su existencia: mamá tiene un novio, con quien piensa quedarse a vivir en su apartamento cueste lo que cueste y caiga quien caiga.
