Mondays in the Sun (2002)
Directed by Fernando León de Aranoa
After the closure of their shipyard in Northern Spain, a few former workers: Santa, José, Lino, Amador, Sergei and Reina keep in touch. They meet mainly at a bar owned by their former colleague Rico. Santa is the most superficially confident and unofficial leader of the group. A court case hangs over him relating to a shipyard lamp he smashed during a protest against the closure. José is bitter that his wife, Ana, is employed when he is not.

What critics compared Mondays in the Sun to
With sheer bravado and the approval of Isabella (Gong Li, "Memoirs of a Geisha"), the right hand of the real power behind the throne, Arcángel de Jesús Montoya (Luis Tosar, "Mondays in the Sun," "Take My Eyes"), Crockett and Tubbs get into the drug transportation business.
In the lesser roles, Javier Bardem (" The Dancer Upstairs ," "Mondays in the Sun") as overlord Felix isn't on the screen all that much but there's little doubt about this man's total lack of regard for life.
