Waiting for Women
Directed by: Estephan Wagner
Documentary Short
RT: 29 min : 30 sec

In the remote Spanish village of ‘Riofrio’ most women have left. Only men are left without the slightest possibility to find a relationship. Not bearing the disastrous situation any longer, they organize a busload of single women to come from Madrid into their loneliness. Their ideal aim is to fall in love! But having never learned how to deal with women, beside their mothers and motorway prostitutes, the event turns into the most bizarre adventure.

Waiting for women is a heart warming documentary about love and solitude, about gender, migration and hope.
