The iconic Goya- and César-winning actor, known worldwide as Pedro Almodóvar’s original muse, fearlessly stars in the film as Maria Angeles, a 79-year-old Spaniard whose peaceful life in Tangier is turned upside down when her daughter arrives from Madrid with the intention of selling her longtime home. Determined not to be uprooted, she discovers romance, desire and a hunger for life. Since winning the Audience Award at Venice and Mill Valley, the film has sparked an emotional wave across festivals, including at Toronto. Morocco’s official Oscar submission, “Calle Malaga” will next be kicking off the 37th Palm Springs Festival.
