One winter night, Angel Pasqual sits in his parked car, reviewing confidential files for his next clients. As he phones a colleague to discuss the fate of a third case, he questions whether there is anything inherently wrong with his line of work. The film then intercuts interviews with three of his clients—Inma, Julian and Delia—revealing their habits, routines and intimate secrets through the lens of an off‑screen interviewer. These vignettes expose the vulnerability and humanity behind bureaucratic processes while illustrating the emotional burden Angel bears. “Comounlastre” (“Like a Burden”) is a portrait of moral ambiguity, exploring the hidden cost of work that requires invading others’ privacy to deliver them a chance at a new life.
