Latido Picks Up Gracia Querejeta’s Malaga Competition Title ‘The Good Luck’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Latido Films acquires Gracia Querejeta's 'The Good Luck,' a love story with crime and family drama, starring Hugo Silva and Megan Montaner.

“The Good Luck,” based on leading Spanish novelist Rosa Montero’s title of the same name, turns on Pablo, who decides to get off the train at a seedy town and buy an old, run-down apartment across the tracks to begin a new life as if he weren’t the renowned architect he actually is. “Rosa Montero interweaves the interior monologue of five or six characters with her own voice as if she herself were another figure observing the journey of the others.” Querejeta’s impressive solo resume goes back to 1987 when she helmed her first short film, “Tres en la marca.” Since then, she’s proved an audience favorite thanks to popular and award-winning titles such as Spanish Academy Goya Award nominees “By My Side Again,” “Siete mesas de billar francés” and “15 Years and One Day,” the latter two titles starring Maribel Verdú (“Y tu mamá también,” “The Flash”).
