SYNOPSIS
“Behind the lights” is the story of Lourdes´s journey. She is a stallholder that travels together with her family and her bumper car track all over the roads of the north of Spain. Several years ago, the track was her greatest dream. They incurred in many expenses and created a family, but dreams change their way. Lourdes drowns in her own hopes and nobody seems to realize her troubles. While travelling all over the roads, towns and villages, we will discover a world on the verge of extinction, an itinerant life and, above all, a great story of love and loss.
