Peter

(In development)

Lucía is working on her first film with Luis, Daniel and José Luis, three amateur Spanish actors on a mission to recreate Peter, a mysterious English man she knew when living in London. In a second-hand shop that serves as a film set, they address questions about how to impersonate him in an exercise of replication and imagination. After doing some tests, reality and fiction start to blur and a series of coincidences involving Peter emerge, shifting Lucía’s position as film director and turning her into a mirror-image of her title character.

If life is a little bit slow and you are a little bit inexperienced when you are thirty years old, I promise you that forty years later you will understand everything there is to know and you will do it absolutely perfect. That’s all you need to know. At the age of 70 things could be better than they were at the age of 30. And I wish my mother and all my friends had told me this.
