Joint winner of Best Director at Cannes, Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi’s La Bola Negra is a powerful generation hopping exploration of Spain starring Penelope Cruz. Inspired by one of Federico García Lorca’s unfinished works, this is an epic and deeply personal drama about love, memory and the truths carried across generations.

What the critics say:
“A magnificently moving triptych that feels at once novel and like a classically staged military epic.” — The Observer
