La Bola Negra star Guitarricadelafuente on the "surprising" reaction to Oscar contender – and one response in particular that truly moved him ...Middle East

News by : (Radio Times) -

Spanish drama La Bola Negra is directed by Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi and inspired by an unfinished play of the same name by Federico García Lorca, with key roles for Guitarricadelafuente, Miguel Bernardeau and Carlos González alongside notable appearances by Hollywood heavyweights Penelope Cruz and Glenn Close.

The film – which tells an era-spanning queer story set across three timelines – has been met with rave reviews ever since it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May, and that momentum has only continued to build now it's been released both in the UK and across the Atlantic.

"Ever since I said yes to the project, I was acknowledgeable about how profound this story was and the beauty in it," he explained in an exclusive interview.

He added that he had thought it was "such a Spanish story... telling so much about our own history and our own circumstances" and so to see how people at film festivals around the world had reacted made him "really proud."

"To notice that it was suddenly something very universal and not just something very Spanish," he continued. "The film talks about love and that's something that everyone connects with."

"[The film] pays homage to all of those love stories that weren't able to happen, and all of those lives that weren't able to take place," he explained.

He added that there was one actor who briefly appears in the film who himself worked for an organisation that helped people going through a similar situation.

"That was something that really connected, and you realise that it's something that still happens today, and how many stories like this happen in real life."
