Latido Takes David Pérez Sañudo’s ‘Sacamantecas’ (EXCLUSIVE)
The third feature from in-demand David Pérez Sañudo, “Sacamantecas” is inspired by the figure of Spain’s first recorded serial killer.
Produced by Olmo Figueredo, who’s also backing “Los últimos románticos,” “Sacamantecas” turns on Spain’s first recorded serial killer, Juan Díaz de Garayo. In two killing sprees over 1872-79, the aging and illiterate farm laborer raped and murdered six women in Vitoria in Spain’s Basque country. Figueredo’s La Claqueta (“The Endless Trench”) produces in Spain with Pérez Sañudo’s Vitoria-based Amania Films (“Ane”) and Belgium’s Caviar/Beluga Tree (“Green Border”).
