Plans for Tomorrow (Spanish; Castilian: '''Planes para mañana'''|links=no) is a 2010 Spanish drama film directed by Juana Macías (her feature debut). The cast features Carme Elias, Goya Toledo, Ana Labordeta and Aura Garrido.
Set in an indeterminate Spanish city,[1] the plot follows four women at a time their lives are facing radical changes.
The film was produced by Teoponte PC, Monte Film and Viernes Producciones, with support from Junta de Extremadura.[2] Shooting locations included the city of Cáceres, in Extremadura.[3]
On 18 April 2010, the film screened at the Málaga Spanish Film Festival (FMCE), where it was met with acclaim. Distributed by A Contracorriente Films, it was theatrically released in Spain on 19 November 2010.[4]
Jonathan Holland of Variety deemed the film to be "a quietly engrossing debut for helmer/co-writer Juana Macias that unpacks the crosscut lives of four women in crisis".[5]
Reviewing for El País, Javier Ocaña considered the film to be a "notable debut" for Macías, highlighting as virtues the subtlety of the script, the magnificent performances, and the agile staging.[6]
Both Ocaña and Holland observed a resemblance in several ways to the 2000 film Amores perros (which also stars Goya Toledo).
Fausto Fernández of Fotogramas gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting the teen contrast offered by Aura Garrido's performance, whereas he cited the presence of egalitarian cliches as a negative point.[7]
