Some Time Later
Sister Sacramento

May God Save Us
Rosario
Madrid, summer 2011. Economic crisis. 15-M movement and 1.5 million pilgrims waiting for the Pope’s arrival live side by side in a Madrid that’s hotter and more chaotic than ever.

Their against-the-clock hunt will make them realise something they’d never imagined: neither of them are so very different from the killer.
Girl Gets Girl
Marta
A deliciously lighthearted comedy from the team of the successful web series Girl Seeks Girl. A hot and hilarious LGBT comedy that shows the different ways to understand love & family.

The main character is a nameless boy (Juan Jose Ballesta) who was taught to steal wallets by his absent mother. He is able to do the trick effortlessly, using his "earnings" to survive while he looks for his mom. As he runs into an antique store owner, he might have found a trace that will lead to her. First, however, he will have to pull off a few "jobs" for the store owner, and he can't do it alone: enter a nameless girl (Maria Valverde) who gets to learn all the secret techniques the young boy has been using all his life.
Sexo en el plató
Herself
How are the sex scenes filmed? What tricks are used to fake the desire? How do the interpreters prepare and feel? Spanish actors and directors talk about the most intimate side of acting, about the tricks and work methods when narrating exposed sex. In Spain the general rule is that there are no rules. Each film, each interpreter, faces it in very different ways.
Princesses
