Although she has been in the business for years, mainly as an actress, and has rubbed shoulders with people like Jonás Trueba, with whom she signed the script for the virgin of augustfor many it would be an important leap to go on to direct their own film, but Sea Plum (Navarra, 1985) explains that for her it has been more like “a little dance step”. And it is that the interpreter debuts in the direction with the girls are finea personal, feminine and feminist look, which is not that I run away from the hang tagsYou just don’t accept them.
Arana presented the film yesterday together with part of his Departmentwith the company of Itziar Manero, Irene Escolar and Helena Ezquerro, within the Atlantida Mallorca Film Fest, which is already facing its final stretch after a week of movies, music and talks. The Navarrese, who has a long career as an interpreter, details that she spent “all twenty directing and writing theater” and thirty “learning to make movies with the production company the deluded», so the evolution It’s natural, in his view.
In any case, he does not deny that it was something “awesome” start filming, giving the day before the start of filming a toast in which he explained that “this film was born from the fragility” and the process of filming it has been an attempt to “make movies my way and not how it’s supposed to be done.”
In other words, “it’s a movie to slappingmade from a very feral interior, with a very humana and possible with the freedom to make it as it came out ». Thus, although the origin of it had as aim the tables of the theater, Arana realized that “it was irrepresentable» and that what interested him the most was «recording that leap from reality to fiction, how artistic materials question us and pouring various experiences that the actresses brought” from home, which is why he adds that he does not imagine “anyone other than them for the film because it is made very to this for each one”. the girls are fine is, then, “a invitation to which they agreed” and in which their presence contributes “anecdotes, humor and an album of experiences that we later agree on what we want to share and what not”, the filmmaker emphasizes.
this look intimate, personal and at the same time collective, was something that the tape breathes and exhales, but does not scream. «I am relieved because when you do not do something very explicit it is labeled for this, and I was afraid to make a women’s film, but that it did not have a message», but rather reflect «the camaraderie, companionship, the relationship with love, desire, that look from outside, etc. For this reason, Arana explains that “it is made under some concepts that are fundamentally very feministsbut I worked hard so that it did not have that message, but I like that it is understood» and, judging by the first impressions received, «it seems that it is being understood».
It is a compliment of femininity and their values, different, yes, but equally valid. a possible learning for the viewer as it was for the director herself who, if in the previous toast she said that the film was born from fragility, in the final toast after filming qualified: «It is born from a force that is born from fragility and that is a treasure».
