God Is on Air

About This Movie

God Is on Air, directed by Jordi Mollà, offers a gritty yet humorous lens on the struggles of two pan-handlers in Spain. The film's tone oscillates between comedy and drama, which is effective in highlighting the absurdity of their situation against a backdrop of societal chaos. The pacing has a certain rhythm that allows moments of levity to punctuate the more serious themes of poverty and desperation. What stands out is how it tackles the role of media in shaping our perception of reality—there's an almost surreal quality to the way the news is integrated into the narrative. The performances are gritty and raw, embodying the struggle to find redemption amidst despair. It’s a distinctive blend of street-level realism and philosophical musings.
