Drama . Directed by Carlos Marques-Marcet
Emotional and breathtaking sense of the story.
The only sadness that comes from “The End” here is that the film itself has concluded.
THEY WILL BE DUST makes LA LA LAND look like ‘Blah Blah Bland.’ Run, don’t walk to see this movie.
After his promising debut with 10.000KM (Goya for Best New Director), Carlos Marques-Marcet’s most ambitious and mature work yet, THEY WILL BE DUST, was awarded with the Jury’s prize for Best Film at the Platform Section at the Toronto International Film Festival. Already widely acclaimed by the press, the film counts with standout performances from Alfredo Castro and Angela Molina and surprising musical numbers not seen alike since DANCER IN THE DARK, performed by La Veronal, the prestigious dance company led by Marcos Morau (Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters in France).
When Claudia, a vibrant septuagenarian, is diagnosed with an incurable illness, she decides to end her days in a clinic in Switzerland. Flavio, her inseparable husband of over 40 years, feels unable to face life without her. Meanwhile, their daughter Violeta becomes a mediator between them while trying to clarify her own thoughts. The three embark on a fascinating and profound journey of love and self-discovery.
