Bedford Film Festival, in partnership with Sprint Convergence, are very excited to be able to bring an incredible, brand new film to Bedford… Julieta
20th Century Fox have only just released this film and we are the ONLY people in Bedford that have been given a licence to screen this film. This is a massive coup for Bedford Film Festival and the town and so we hope you’ll come along and support this screening of a film that Mark Kermode says is “Almodóvar’s five-star return to form.”
Julieta (Emma Suarez) is a middle-aged woman living in Madrid with her boyfriend Lorenzo. Both are going to move to Portugal when she casually runs into Bea, former best friend of her daughter Antia, who reveals that this one is living in Switzerland married and with three children. With the heart broken after 12 years of total absence of her daughter, Julieta cancels the journey to Portugal and she moves to her former building, in the hope that Antia someday communicates with her sending a letter. Alone with her thoughts, Julieta starts to write her memories to confront the pain of the events happened when she was a teenager (Adriana Ugarte) and met Xoan, a Galician fisherman. Falling in love with him, Julieta divides her time between the family, the job and the education of Antia until a fatal accident changes their lives. (Written by Chockys)
