2001: men without jobs, in the port city of Vigo. Six men worked in a shipyard, now shuttered. They pass the time at La Naval, a bar opened by one of them after the yard closed. They face their futures in makeshift ways: Rico has his bar and a sharp 15-year-old daughter, Reina has become a watchman and a moralizer, Lino fills out job applications, Amador drinks heavily and talks of his wife's return; José is married to Ana, who works at a cannery and tires of being the breadwinner amidst José's emasculated moodiness; Santa, the group's conscience and troublemaker, occasionally fantasizes about Australia. In truth, all are joined like Siamese twins, adrift.

Movie Reviews

Blunt Review - 10/10 by Emily BluntMondays in the Sun is a delightfully understated snapshot of life. Director/writer Fernando León de Aranda has captured a bit of the melancholy of displacement...
Newsday - 9/10 by Jan StuartA cannily observant but withholding film in which nothing happens, over and again.
New York Times - 9/10 by A.O. ScottThis slow, episodic film is held together by the galvanic presence of Javier Bardem.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenA well-acted, realistic look at unemployed shipyard workers in northern Spain alternating humor with pathos.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris HewittWhat keeps us involved in this perceptive film is the beautiful acting of its cast ... and the way the movie balances grim reality with bits of fancy that feel oddly perfect.
Movie Habit - 8/10 by Marty MapesInstead of pacing, it offers terrific performances and a wonderful sense of small-time tragedy
Cinema em Cena - 8/10 by Pablo VillaçaDelicado drama que, com seu elenco coeso encabeçado por um Bardem vigoroso e intenso, funciona como um testemunho do impacto psicológico e moral provocado pelo desemprego numa economia em recessão.
Uruguay Total - 8/10 by Enrique BuchichioSi Los Lunes al Sol es una película tan humana, tan sensible y tan reveladora es porque hemos visto esos personajes acá nomás, a la vuelta de la esquina.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 8/10 by Jeff ViceA strongly constructed and effective drama.
Reeling Reviews - 8/10 by Laura Clifforda funny and compassionate tribute to the unemployed.
