We caught wind of Lucía Garibaldi when she wowed San Sebastián industry people winning top prize coin in the Films in Progress 32 Industry Award. The Sharks is one of those debut films informed by some of the master female filmmakers of native Latin American cinema by Euro-centric visionaries as one. The world premiere was unveiled at the Egyptian Theatre with jury members Jane Campion, Ciro Guerra and producer Charles Gillibert (Mia Hansen-Løve’s masterwork Things to Come) in the crowd — they would end up awarding the filmmaker with the Best Director prize of the section.
