Spain’s Alberto Rodriguez Opens Up on Marché du Film Standout ‘Los Tigres’


Part of pay TV Movistar Plus+’s first slate of event auteur movies, ‘Los Tigres’ is a more personal turn for Rodríguez: ‘It’s about emotions.’

Accompanying Movistar Plus execs Domingo Corral and Guillermo Farré were five of the coolest, most successful and relatively young filmmakers in Spain today: Rodrigo Sorogoyen, Alberto Rodríguez, Iciar Bolláin, Oliver Laxe and Ana Rujas. Six months later, Rodríguez, director of Goya Award winner “Marshland” and 1580s Seville thriller series “The Plague,” is caught on set by Variety on Spain’s southern seaboard, on a boat just off Huelva, home to huge smoke-belching refineries and stunning natural parks. Written with Rodríguez’s career-long co-writer Rafael Cobos (“The Plague”), “Los Tigres” is produced by Movistar Plus+ and co-produced by Kowalski Films and Feelgood Media in Spain, joined by France’s Le Pacte.
