  • English Pressbook
    Written and directed by JULIO MEDEM Produced by Alvaro Longoria A Morena Films Production In association with Alicia Produce Intervenciones Novo Film 2006, AIE Wild Bunch PRESSBOOK SYNOPSIS A hotel room in the centre of Rome sets the interior scene where two young women, who have just met, go on a physical journey which will touch their souls. The story takes place overnight and over the early morning hours, beginning of summer 2008, before Rome is due to send them off to their respective lands. In the afternoon Alba flies to Spain, and Natasha to Russia. The hotel room, which seems to have been always waiting for them, contains a heartfelt history embedded in its ancient walls, and suggests an atmosphere filled with sensuality and eroticism, toppled by a mysterious force that focuses one’s eye onto the unknown. New feelings are born and bred by Natasha and Alba, as well as a sense of ease and good humour. A natural understanding ensues, bringing comic as well as enigmatic moments, before the unexpected arrival of love strikes them like an arrow pierced from above. Night and day, over a period of twelve hours, these two women unravel their lives; first they hide and protect themselves by fear of loosing a love too precious, later allowing themselves to be taken into the unknown setting of the other, inhabited by the compromises and the honest love felt for their respective partners; in Alba’s case, a woman, mother of two; and in Natasha’s, her Renaissance professor whom she due to marry next week.

    FILM LIBRARY 2018 Latido Films is an international sales agency founded in 2003 to commercialize all-film rights of titles from all over the world (with a line-up of no more than 15 per year to ensure our quality standards), with a special focus in Spain and Latin-America and lately Eastern Europe. Latido has collaborated with prestigious filmmakers such as Juan Jose Campanella (“The Weasels”, “The Secret In Their Eyes” – Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film), Carlos Saura (“J: Beyond Flamenco”, “Fados”), Andres Wood (“Violeta Went To Heaven” and “Machuca”), just to mention some of them. Moreover, we support established arthouse directors such as Krzysztof Zanussi, Mariano Cohn and Gastón Duprat. On the other hand, we work with box office hits such as “Champions“ by Javier Fesser and “The Best Summer Of My Life” by Dani de la Orden. Likewise, Latido seeks after rising up new talents like Bartosz M. Kowalski (“Playground”) and Rodrigo Sorogoyen (“The Realm”, “May God Save Us”). We are also convinced that there’s a market for movies by striking new women directors, such as Pepa San Martin (“Rara”), Laura Mora (“Killing Jesus”) and Arantxa Echevarría (“Carmen & Lola”). Multi-audience animations and ground-breaking documentaries are also a must in our catalogue. FILM LIBRARY 1973. Uruguay is governed by a military dictatorship.

Duración: 114 minutos Género: Drama Sinopsis: El largometraje de Milos Forman, nos introduce en el interesante estudio de los vertiginosos cambios políticos, culturales, sociales, jurídicos, etc. que se produjeron en la sociedad española de finales del siglo XVIII y principios del siglo XIX. De una comunidad atemorizada por el poder omnipresente de la Inquisición, titular del ius puniendi, a una sociedad impregnada por las ideas revolucionarias llegadas desde París. En este contexto, la joven Inés (Natalie Portman) será “puesta a cuestión” por parte de los órganos inquisitoriales como sospechosa de judaísmo. Su familia hará todo lo posible por liberarla de la prisión llegando, incluso, a poner en duda los métodos de investigación empleados por la Inquisición, en especial, el método principal de obtención de prueba: la confesión. Sus intentos por liberarla serán en vano. No es hasta 15 años después, momento en el que la influencia de la Revolución francesa de 1789 llega a España, cuando Inés sale de prisión; sin familia, sin posesiones, en un estado psicológico y físico patológico, Inés tratará de buscar a su hija, producto de la agresión sexual sufrida durante su encarcelamiento por parte de un respetado y fundamentalista clérigo (Javier Bardem), cuya postura ideológica variará posteriormente por la influencia de la Revolución francesa.

Observa el cartel de la película y comenta con tu compañero: -qué aparece en el cartel -qué tipo de película imaginas, y la época -cómo va vestido el personaje que aparece -que te sugiere el título -imagina un argumento utilizando estas palabras: guerra, soldado, intriga, corrupción, amistad, siglo XVII, la corte del Rey… B. Vamos ahora a trabajar con la sinopsis de esta película. El texto está un poco desordenado, ¿podéis ordenarlo? A A su regreso a Madrid, Alatriste se encuentra con un imperio moribundo. La misma España en la que Quevedo y Góngora escriben sus versos, Velázquez pinta sus cuadros, y Lope de Vega estrena sus comedias, se desmorona ante la impasibilidad de su Rey.
