There’s a new Spanish film on the horizon called ‘La Koreana,’ and everyone’s talking about it. It sounds amazing. A real banner title for new talent!

Who’s making this magic happen? Well, get ready for a powerhouse team. We’re talking about Sirimiri Films, founded by Estibaliz Urresola.

You might know Estibaliz from her incredible Berlinale winner, ‘20,000 Species of Bees.’ Yeah, she’s a big deal. She’s teaming up with Lazona Zinema. These folks know their stuff, having brought us hits like ‘Spanish Affair’ and ‘Gigantes.’

But here’s the really exciting part: ‘La Koreana’ is the projected feature debut of Joana Moya. She’s a Basque writer-director, and this is her first big movie. We love seeing new voices shine!

The film was already brought to market at Locarno, an international film festival. That means people are already noticing its potential. We can already picture the unique visual style, the distinct aesthetic that often makes new Spanish cinema so vibrant and captivating.

It’s fresh. It’s bold. We bet it’ll be a visual treat.
