Spanish Thriller ‘Lo Que Sus Ojos Esconden,’ Based on the True Story of 12 Unsolved Spanish Sex Worker Killings in the ’80-’90s, In Development at N&L Films, La Canica (EXCLUSIVE)
The film will be directed and written by 'Below Zero' duo Lluíz Quílez and Fernando Navarro.
Between August 1989 and April 1996, in the southern Spanish province of Almería, a dozen murdered sex workers’ bodies were found naked in ravines and on the sides of roads. Quílez and Navarro say the primary theme of “Behind His Eyes” will be obsession, demonstrated both in the killer’s brutal crimes and the unyielding work of investigators who spent years trying to discover his identity. Given that the real killer was never found, Mayne says it’s important that the film isn’t executed as a pure true crime proposition and embraces a more fictionalized drama narrative.
