Producer Carla Sospedra Salvadó, Director Sergi Pérez Discuss Their ECAM Incubator Project ‘Memorial,’ Starring ‘The Room Next Door’s’ Victoria Luengo


The project, slated to shoot this autumn, is loaded with emerging Spanish talent on both sides of the camera.

A museum curator faces all facets of mourning in Spanish director Sergi Pérez’s upcoming feature “Memorial,” selected to participate at Madrid’s 7th Annual ECAM Incubator, among Spain’s most prestigious international co-production forums. Other producers include Jofre Ferré and Ander Sagardoy at Barcelona’s Sumendi Filmak (“Betiko Gaua”), Alex Lafuente at Madrid’s B Team Pictures (“Reinas”) and Jerome Vidal at Paris-based Noodles Production (“Robot Dreams”). Pérez, whose 2015 debut feature “El camino más largo para volver a casa” scooped a Gaudi plaudit for best film – which coincided with a rapturous festival run – has crafted a love note to impermanence and the insurmountable toll that loss has the potential to inflict on the fragile psyche.
