The Fish Tamer

In the pond in Franciscu's garden there're still colourful fish swimming about, but there's one which nearly always stays at the bottom. She doesn't come up to the surface like she used to. Anyone who says that fish have no memory has obviously never met Juanita the carp.

Roger and Daniel decided to create El Cangrejo in 2009 with the producer Cristina Sánchez. Since then, they've been trying to find how to mix reality with fiction and how to combine television, documentaries and spots with their true passions: to sunbathe, play dead in the water and listen to records on their tumtables. Besides their previous works as filmmakers on their own, as El Cangrejo they've directed the tv series 'El poble del coastat' (2010) and 'Doltze bodes i un funeral' (2010) and the documentaries, 'Regreso a la española' (2009) and 'Los últimos' (2011). They're also behind 'El entrenador' (online series) and 'L'equip petit' (2011), short documentary that has became a phenomenon on the net.
