Family Dramas, Queer, Horror Themes Among Spanish Pics at Berlinale’s Co-Production Market Underscore the Breadth of Spanish Filmmaking


The five Spanish titles at Berlinale’s Co-Production Market were as diverse as they come.

Aquí y Allí Films’ “Konbini” is a rare co-production with Japan while “Girl, Don’t Play” by Ainhoa Rodríguez calls itself an anti-film noir about female monsters. Still in early development, it is backed by Spanish Film Institute ICAA and Japan’s Tsutaya Programme, “‘Konbini’ is a wonderful story that reflects a harsh reality but narrated in such a tender way that it makes you fall in love with it. It is a dream to lead and participate in such an international co-production with Culture Entertainment, one of Japan’s most active production companies with over 30 years of experience,” says Collantes.
