In the "genre" box, Raúl Capdevila, director of Remainders, enters "Western / Creative Documentary". As the struggle against the elements, and the daily events in the life of his father, José Ramón Capdevila, the last of three generations of farmers and ranchers in Binéfar, Huesca, emulates a lonely western adventure. Raúl returns home after failing to find work in the city, and in the meantime helps his father. The bandits in this true story are the "Pini Group", a predatory meat industry company that wants to build a huge macro-slaughterhouse in Binéfar.
