About this Event
Alex, a young actress, is raped at a New Year’s Eve party and does not recognize her attacker. When she turns to her brother Adrián for refuge and understanding, he responds by questioning and pressuring her. Consequently, Alex distances herself from her brother and everything she knows.
For a year, she grapples alone with feelings of revulsion, shame, and guilt. Consumed by rage, Adrián makes his own choices, embarking on an increasingly dark path—far removed from what Alex needs. Meanwhile, she plays the vengeful role of Medea, finding in the theater the only way to channel her pain and anger.
The movie will be screened in Catalan and Spanish with English subtitles.
Not recommended for ages 16 and younger.
This screening is the part of the series Cicle Gaudí: Catalan Cinema Worldwide, organized by the Delegation of the Government of Catalonia to the United States as part of our commitment to sharing Catalonia’s culture and creativity with the Washington community. This initiative is a collaboration with the Acadèmia del Cinema Català, with the support of the Institut Ramon Llull.
