Spanish producer Maria Zamora of Elástica Films, who has championed emerging and mostly female filmmakers through most of her 20-year career, received this year’s annual National Cinematography Award at the 72nd San Sebastian Festival on Saturday, Sept. 21. “Indeed, in these uncertain times, we need a stabilizing force like Maria,” said Ortiz, a multi-Goya nominated filmmaker whose film “La Virgen Roja” (previously titled “Hildegart”), Elástica’s co-production with Prime Video, premieres on Sept. 22 in San Sebastian. He praised her for “constantly taking risks and prioritizing the social value of the cinematic act.” For this reason, he emphasized, “in our cinema, like in the films bearing María Zamora’s signature, we have an excellent guide to better understand the present.”
