Set in Madrid in the 1950s, Esa pareja feliz is the feature film debut by Luis García Berlanga and Juan Antonio Bardem. Underlying the 1951 comedy, heavily influenced by Italian neorealism, is a critical look at the incipient consumerism that was beginning to infiltrate the society of the day. A young couple, searching for ways to improve their lot in life, win a contest sponsored by the Florit soap company and receive the gifts and invitations awarded to the “happy couple” for 24 hours, before they must return to their everyday reality.
