Stico

Stico centers on Leopoldo Contreras, an emeritus professor of Roman law, who struggles with serious economic issues. As his translations of classical authors fail to provide adequate income, he finds himself in a dire situation, even selling his home. To alleviate his financial burdens, Leopoldo offers himself as a slave to a former student in exchange for room and board.

The film features a strong cast, including Fernando Fernán Gómez, Agustín González, and Carme Elias, which adds depth to this narrative of desperation and humor. The runtime of 105 minutes allows for an exploration of complex themes while maintaining a comedic touch. Produced by Serva Films, Stico presents a blend of drama and comedy that reflects the era's storytelling style.
