The actor and director Daniel Guzman was the protagonist of the last installment of The Revoltthe La 1 space hosted by David Broncano, where he demonstrated that behind humor there can also be a powerful social complaint. In full promotion of his new movie, The debtGuzmán displayed irony and commitment in an interview that left no one indifferent.

"I don't understand what people are complaining about. If you already have a house, why do you want to eat?" the director said in a sarcastic tone when talking about rental prices in cities like Madrid. A phrase that crudely summarizes the housing situation in Spain and that resonated strongly on networks.

The conversation, which began by talking about his film – a thriller with social overtones that addresses the eviction of an elderly woman and her tenant at the hands of an investment fund – soon turned to the reality that thousands of people live. "We have seen 13-meter apartments for 800 euros. And that is 70% of the minimum wage," said Broncano.giving rise to an exchange where the complaint was camouflaged in sharp humor.

Cinema, debt and precariousness

Guzmán, who plays the protagonist of The debtconfessed in a semi-jocular tone that the title is no coincidence: “Sex less than money. I have also gone into debt”he said when faced with the show's classic questions about sex and money.

But beyond the jokes, the actor was honest about the economic and emotional cost of carrying out a project of this magnitude. “Big movies, if you don't control them, you have to ask for credits to finish them. You can't leave them halfway,” he explained.

There was no shortage of personal moments, as Guzmán recalled his youth as a bricklayer: “We carried 50 kilo bags on our backs”he said when talking about his summers working while still studying. "It's very hard. There is less and less of everything," he reflected, in a clear vindication of manual trades and the culture of effort.

Gifts with message

Another gesture that left its mark was the gift: Guzmán gave Palestinian handkerchiefs to Broncano, Ricardo Castella and Grison. "I had forgotten to bring a gift, but I think it was nicer this way. I'm excited to give you this," he declared. Broncano received it with emotion and placed it next to the Palestinian flag that he wore on his jacket: "It is a good gift. In addition to being symbolic, it is a very versatile garment."

Between laughter, anecdotes and sharp comments, Daniel Guzmán managed to turn a television promotion into a speaker to reflect on uncomfortable topics. The debt It's not just a movie, but also a metaphor about what it costs to make art, about personal renunciations and, above all, about a society that seems to have normalized the unacceptable.

As Guzmán himself said before saying goodbye: "I wanted to come talk about life. And since it came out The debtsince it has also been commented.”
