Asghar Farhadi : 2018
Todos lo saben
Laura returns to the village where she was born, on a Spanish vineyard, to attend her sister Ana's wedding. She is back from Argentina for the occasion, single-handedly looking after her two children as her husband couldn't make it. Parents, children, grandchildren, friends – numerous generations mingle in the family home, enjoying a fun-filled reunion. Among them, Paco stands out. He runs a local vineyard with his partner, Bea, and we quickly learn that he once had a passionate affair with Laura many years ago. As the joyful wedding evening gets into full swing, there's a power cut. A storm is brewing, and Laura soon realises that her 16-year-old daughter, Irene, has gone missing after going to bed. Having not long gathered together a search party, the family receives a text message: Irene has been kidnapped and will be killed if they alert the police. The kidnappers are demanding a ransom of €300,000. Anxiety reaches a peak and Alejandro, Irene's father, flies over from South America. As it dawns on the family that the kidnapping must have required the complicity of one or more relatives, suspicion sets in, resentment bubbles to the surface and secrets are revealed. Asghar Farhadi's feature premiered in competition at Festival de Cannes 2018.
