has acquired international rights to Venezuelan director Patricia Ortega’s comedy “Mamacruz,” which competes in World Cinema Dramatic at the Sundance Festival, which kicks off Jan. 19.

The coming-of-old-age story, co-written by Ortega and José Ortuño , pays tribute to those women who decide to take the reins of their own destiny. “The selection of ‘Mamacruz’ by Sundance is extremely relevant,” said Iván Díaz, head of international at Filmax. “Mamacruz” is a story that started out as Venezuelan, at some point had a Colombian partner, then almost became an Argentine film, and finally ended up as a Spanish film. I worked on a universal plot: a conventional person, limited by her own beliefs, who, due to an event in life, decides to fight her fears and prejudices to experiment that she had never dared to experiment.

Mirrors and reflective surfaces were also important, I wanted my character to be constantly reflected. However, she was never aware of her own reflection, until the end, when she finally found herself.
