‘Julieta’ Star Emma Suarez and Natalia de Molina on Tackling Addiction, Dance and Silence in Aitor Echeverría’s Feature Debut ‘Dismantling an Elephant’


Two of Spain's top actors, Emma Suárez and Natalia de Molina, both multiple-time Goya winners, discuss their work in the family-focused drama.

In “ Dismantling an Elephant,” Spanish director Aitor Echeverría delivers an exploration of addiction’s ripple effects within a family, framed through an intimate mother-daughter dynamic. I like awkwardness in art, things that pull you out of your comfort zone, and it is true that there are a lot of filmmakers coming up who want to regenerate and start again from another place, but they’re the ones who have it the hardest, the ones who receive the least amount of support and the ones who get clobbered the most.” “ Dismantling an Elephant” comes from Barcelona-based Arcadia Motion Pictures, the production company behind Rodrigo Sorogoyen’s foreign-language César winner “The Beasts” and the Academy Award-nominated animated feature “Robot Dreams.” The film is backed by Spanish production-sales-distribution powerhouse Filmax.
