La novia



Paula Ortiz : 2015
The Bride

Two men, one woman, a love story and a desire stronger than the law, wilder than the land around them. Leonardo, The Groom and The Bride have been an inseparable triangle since they were children, but Leonardo and The Bride share a special and almost invisible bond that cannot be broken. Years go by and The Bride, unhappy, prepares for her wedding day with The Groom in the middle of the bleak white desert, where she lives with her father. The day before the wedding, an old beggar knocks on her door offering her a gift and some advice: "Don't marry him if you don't love him", as she gives her two glass daggers. On the day of her wedding, The Bride and her lover escape on horseback to live their love. Carried away by their passion, they defy all moral and social rules, even challenging their own judgement. Their disobedience will have devastating consequences. Paula Ortiz's second feature is a free adaptation of the tragedy Bodas de sangre by Federico García Lorca.
