Fernando León De Aranoa A Perfect Day PERFECT DAY Comedy • 2015 • 1h 45m

1995. Balkans, end of war in Bosnia.

The body of an obese man lies at the bottom of a well making the water infection-prone, therefore unfit for drinking.

Mambru and B, two veteran humanitarian relief workers must solve the problem, which turns out to be a mission bordering on the absurd.

The big problem is how to find a rope among the indifference and apathy of the local people.

Procedures, regulations, laws hinder without logic the tangled machine of humanitarian support.

A beautiful Frenchwoman, a neophyte in the mission, wants compliance with the rules and the beautiful Katja, between humanitarian ideals and human weaknesses tries to support a chaotic situation. The problem that often arises is crossing roads on which a dead cow lies, under which mines may be hiding.... How to cross the "ford"?

A surreal and tragicomic Perfect Day photographs the complexity of war territories, where the enemy is not only the declared one but also everything that goes around in terms of economic speculation.

Without neglecting any respect for human tragedy, this play, tells a page of everyday history, of an inevitably grotesque war.

A perfectly irrational day, bordering on human perversion incapable of pursuing social usefulness; a lucid and intrusive portrait, which makes one smile without sacrificing reflection.

A "No man's land" by Fernado Leon de Aranoa (the same as "Afternoons in the Sun," with Bardem), this Perfect day, an emblematic metaphor for how men manage to complicate their existence, oblivious to the sarcasm that overwhelms them.

Giants, not only in stature, Benicio Del Toro and Tim Robbin who with their irony defy the odds, with just the right amount of caution the one and the effrontery of someone who has lost his inhibitory brakes, the other, in order to survive or alternatively go mad with nonsense.
