Supernatural Stories, Dark Humor, Hostage Plotlines Converge in 2024 Sanfic-Morbido Lab Lineup: Projects From Caye Casas, Guillermo Amoedo Headline Bold Slate (EXCLUSIVE)
Six of the most ambitious genre projects from the Spanish-speaking world will pitch at this year's Sanfic-Morbido Lab.
This year’s selections center on the fantastic, the spiritual and the zany with dark humor in sharp focus in a campy title from Casas, “El Show del Gran Luciferio,” and Marco Caltieri’s executive thriller, “Variable Capital.” Lights, camera and depraved action, the narrative follows charismatic and macabre Lucifero, a showman who presents his audience with a devilish competition program that challenges contestants beyond their bounds for six million euros. Resilient Mara and her young daughter Alicia live under an increasingly odd set of rules in order to survive otherworldly dangers in a post-apocalyptic world, where ghosts reign and the humans that remain face prosecution by the very souls of those they once loved.
