When faded pop star Lila (Najwa Nimri) suffers an inconvenient attack of amnesia on the eve of her comeback tour, fervent fan Violetta (Eva Llorach) is recruited to help her become herself again.

Voted Best Film by critics at the San Sebastian International Film Festival, Carlos Vermut‘s twisted tale of fame, duplicity and identity has earned comparions with Hitchcock and, inevitably, Almodovar – amnesia being one of Pedro’s favourite plot devices. It’s screened in the ¡Viva! Spanish & Latin American Festival 2019 Tour, which returns to Bristol after a 10 year hiatus with a programme centred on woman in global cinema.
