Contratiempo, movie



A brilliant thriller that I would recommend to anyone who likes movies in such a climate. What deserves special attention, aside from fictional swirls, is the disturbing atmosphere of the thriller. Copious amounts of plot twists can confuse the viewer in a matter of minutes. Once the viewer thinks he is following the plot, a sudden detail shows up and destroys all of his assumptions. While watching the movie "Contratiempo", one must be vigilant, as it is easy to miss an important detail that may affect later understanding of the motivations of individual heroes.
Young businessman Adrián (Mario Casas) wakes up in a hotel room next to his dead lover. Afterwards he decides to hire one of the best attorneys to tell her his course of events, in which, he claims that the murder was commited by a different man. Adrián's retrospections are the backbone of the whole story. The hero stubbornly tries to deduce an alternative version of the events. The woman interviewing him, every now and then, finds inaccuracies in his story, surprising him with an unexpected knowledge of the details of his life, including the dark secret from the past.

Wine from Spain

Wine from Spain Have you ever noticed the name and the origin of the wine you drink? Did you know, that Spain is famous for wine production? Spain is the second oldest wine producing country in the Mediterranean area. Spain produces modern wines, such as fruit or grape, both of very high quality. The Spanish wines have a potential of aging and a combination of character and diversity that allows them to conquer the world market.  The most famous wine is, without a doubt, Rioja . This red and dry wine can come as young wine with fruit flavor (Tinto Joven) or as exquisite wine (Gran Reserva).

The last one is Cava , a sparkling wine, that's made using traditional methods.    If you haven't ever tried a Spanish wine, I highly recommend that you do!

Spanish cuisine

  I love spanish cooking and the fact that its based on natural ingriedients. I love its astonishing aroma, colorfulness and most of all, its taste. The spanish cuisine was shaped through influences from many different regions. The ones that had the most influence were Arabic, English, French and Mexican. It doesn't posses a uniform way of preparing dishes, because each of the regions takes pride in its very own, spectacular dish. Differences are greatly influenced by the proximity of the Mediterranean sea, tradition or history connected with the region. It is a colorful cuisine, that uses an abundant amount of fruits and vegetables as well as fish and seafood. The richness of its flavor is due to the use of herbs.

Spain is famous for its rich tradition of distinctive products, dried hams and the preparation of ...
