SPA | 2021 | dir. Fernando León de Aranoa, with Javier Bardem, Manolo Solo, Almudena Amor | UK premiere courtesy of Curzon
Winning Fernando León de Aranoa the awards for Best Film, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay at the 2022 Goya Awards, the film meets high expectations by delivering a memorable and poignant social satire about a scales manufacturer in provincial Spain. The business’ charismatic owner, Blanco, pretends to be a father figure to all his employees without losing sight of his main objective: the regional award for business excellence. Bardem offers an extraordinary performance as the charismatic and controlling Blanco, Manolo Solo shines as the conforming and troubled Miralles, whilst Almudena Amor brings trouble as a very determined intern.
