FRIDAY 22/3
Antonio Chavarrías · Spain · 2024 · Script: Antonio Chavarrías · Interpreters: Daniela Brown, Blanca Romero, Carlos Cuevas…
Con The abbess, veteran director Antonio Chavarrías addresses an era that is rarely treated in our cinema. We are in the 9th century. In these moments, The Iberian Peninsula is mostly occupied by Muslims. Only a few Christian kingdoms hold back the advance in the north. So, we will meet Emma, daughter of the count of Barcelona. The unexpected death of her father makes her an abbess, a charge, in principle, figurative. But Emma will demonstrate her ability and determination when it comes to expanding Christian dominion over the enemy.. G.LEON
