#69. Una Noche – Lucy Mulloy
Profiled in our predictions list last year and in our “In the Pipeline” series, I guess Lucy Mulloy is several steps closer to a film festival birth – and Sundance certainly looks like great spot to showcase Una Noche. World Dramatic Competition spot would be appropriate.
Gist: The film follows 16-year old Raul through a night that will change his life forever. Raul’s mother is very ill and his frustration at his situation comes out as a passive aggression towards her. His good looks entice a string of admirers but he deals with his emotional pain by shutting out deeper relationships. Upon this night he releases his frustration, the result of which will make turning back impossible. Raul, more desperate than ever sets out to cross a stretch of water notorious for the deaths of thousands, 90 miles across the Ocean in the US. The journey pushes him to the limits of human endurance and courage.
* Producer: Daniel Mulloy
