Alcarràs, directed by Carla Simón, has been selected by the Academia de las Artes y las Ciencias Cinematográficas to represent Spain in the race towards the 95th Oscars, in the Best International Film category. Produced by Vilaüt Films, Avalon, Elastica Films and Kino Produzioni, Alcarràs won the Golden Bear in the last Berlinale, and has premiered in international film festivals such as San Sebastian Film Festival and BFI London Film Festival. It is also shortlisted for the European Film Awards. The film has the support of the ICEC, and has become a box office success.
In the race to the Oscars, Alcarràs will have to pass the pre-selection of Hollywood academics, who at the end of January will decide which are the five candidate films for the statuette for this category.
I'm so happy to share this beautiful journey with the Solé family. Congratulations to all the team of ALCARRÀS film and best of luck!
