Paula Hernández, of ‘The Sleepwalkers,’ Attached to Direct Eva Perón Series Project From Argentine Powerhouse Kapow (EXCLUSIVE)
The five-episode, 60-minute series is inspired by the youth of legendary Eva Perón, second wife of Argentine president Juan Domingo Perón.
Produced by Kapow co-founders Agustín Sacanell, Lucas Rainelli and Diego Ventura, the company’s head of scripted development, the series aims to be a journey through Duarte’s personal story and, at the same time, through Argentina during those years which, just like Eva, undergoes a full transformation. The script is written by Hernández alongside Leonel D’Agostino, a scribe on “La Jauría,” and Pablo Giorgelli, the director and co-writer of “Las Acacias,” a Cannes Camera d’Or best first feature winner. For “Duarte,” Kapow is closing a co-production deal with “two relevant industry players”; a major English distributor and a Spanish production company to finalise this project,” Ventura unveiled.
