Alicia Moncholí, winner of the New Directors of Asturias Award for her latest short, “Campolivar,” is developing her first feature film, the coming-of-age drama “Weekends,” just announced as one of…
“Weekends,” like “Campolivar,” is set up at Barcelona-based Oberón Media, launched in 2018 by Antonio Chavarrías, producer of Berlin Golden Bear winner “The Milk of Sorrow” and director of “The Chosen,” and Mexico’s Mónica Lozano, producer of Alejandro González Iñarritu’s “Amores Perros” and Eugenio Derbéz’s “Instructions Not Included.”
Her future debut is also written by Moncholí, an alum of Barcelona’s Escac film school whose work turns on the reinterpretation of experiences related to family, absence and latent trauma. “Through the fractured dynamics of their relationship, Olivia will lose the innocence of her childhood and confront instability contaminated with a reality of anguish, feats and euphoria that her father reveals to her,” the synopsis runs.
“I aim to develop a project that reflects on mental health, parent-child relationships, and the changes in perception towards the world caused by childhood trauma,” she added.
