Opta a: Premio Pilar Miró a la mejor nueva dirección
Lea Grand is a Swiss actress lost in Madrid who must find her way as an actress in a country where she was not born. She will have the help of disparate characters who cross her path: a young actress, her ex-partner, a mute pianist, her neighbour, and a nurse who specialises in bats. But she is looking in the wrong place.
Ana Serret Ituarte
Born in Madrid, she began work as an assistant and 2nd unit director with filmmakers such as Mario Camus, Fernando Colomo, Gerardo Vera and Mariano Barroso. She moved to Rome, where she worked as an editor in a post-production studio, and returned to Madrid to be part of López-Li Films as camera and editor. In 2005, she directed her first short film, ‘Extras’, which won the Goya award in 2005 for Best Documentary Short Film. In 2015, she premiered her first feature film, ‘La fiesta de otros’, at DocumentaMadrid and won a special mention from the jury and the DOCMA Award at the Alcances Festival. Her second feature film, ‘El señor Liberto y los pequeños placeres’ (2019), premiered at the Seville European Film Festival in the Resistencias section before being selected for competitions such as IBAFF, the Málaga Film Festival, Rizoma and MIDBogotá. In 2019, she was selected for the first edition of the Film Academy's Residency Programme to develop ‘Apuntes para una ficción consentida’ (2025), her first feature film. Since 2015, she has been collaborating with the A Bao A Qu association on the educational project Cine en Curso.
