A man, a woman and their young daughter live together in a flat in the Basque Country. Housework and everyday gestures are superimposed on lush green landscapes. The filmmakers and their doubles reinterpret fragments from a journal. Music fills the house while the children’s drawings come to life. Combining observation and moments of fantasy, In a Nearby Field is a film about support, inheritance and the small, invisible tasks that sustain us. (Gijón International Film Festival)
