SPECIAL PRESENTATION - SPOT

From the Spanish Consulate in Canberra, director César Espada has created what is all at once an engrossing, disturbing and twistedly comedic story of deliberate cruelty with SPOT. After a break-up pushes Daniel to drink two bottles of Vanish stain remover in front of his camera for YouTube, we travel on a flashback to Madrid with Daniel and his girlfriend Natalia to find out the cause of their relationship’s demise.

Director César Espada and actress Eulalia Ramón (The 7th Day)  will be in attendance for Special Presentations of SPOT, followed by a Q&A in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra.

PALACE CINEMA COMO - FRIDAY 8 MAY
6:30pm screening followed by Q&A with director César Espada and actress Eulalia Ramón
