AMA/Q&A Announcement – Carla Simón – Friday 6/26 at 3:00 PM ET – Writer-Director of ‘Summer 1993’, ‘Alcarràs’, and ‘Romeria’

Writer-director Carla Simón will be joining us here in r/movies for an AMA/Q&A next Friday 6/26. It'll go live around 9 AM ET that morning and she'll be back at around 3 PM ET to answer questions. Her previous films are Summer 1993 and Alcarras. All 3 of her films were selected by Spain as the official submission to the Best International Film category at the Academy Awards.

Please stop by next Friday if you have questions for Carla 🙂

Her newest film, Romeria, premiered to critical acclaim at Cannes last year, where it was in-competition for the Palme d'Or, and is being released in theaters next week by Janus films. It's an absolutely beautiful movie and I recommend anyone to check it out.

To secure her education, Marina must find her birth family. Guided by her mother's diary, she travels to the coast and uncovers buried secrets and long-hidden shames of the past.

Please note that is not the AMA, just an announcement. Hold your questions for the actual AMA.
