Queen of the South (La Reina del Sur) is a Mexican series starring Kate del Castillo, Iván Sánchez, Cristina Urgel and Rafael Amaya among others.
Queen of the South is one of the most expensive and successful soap operas produced by Telemundo. It tells the story of the rise of Teresa Mendoza to become the queen of an international drug cartel.
A soap opera that is now available on Netflix, and is in its third season (with over fifty episodes). It will delight some and probably leave others (especially the critics) unwilling to even mention it.
The story is based on the best-seller by Arturo Pérez Reverte who, in all his complexity, has reached the hearts of millions.

In a flat, Ángeles keeps solemn company with her despair. Neurodivergent and seeking refuge, she eventually escapes into a Western-themed video game, embarking on an emotional adventure between reality and the virtual world that entices her.
“Ripli” marks the debut feature effort for Madrid-based director Elena Tara, whose delicate first short “Ella Muerta De Frio. Yo Calada Hasta Los Huesos” snagged her the best director award at the New York International Film Festival’s Revolution Me for new directors in 2020.
An Ecam alum, she participated in this year’s Incubator, Madrid’s prestigious development program that catapults emergent Spanish talent. Spain’s Goya Award-Winning director Enrique Urbizu (“No Rest For The Wicked”) acted as mentor, and with that helpful nudge, Tara finalized a version of the script she’s happy to advance.
The final narrative includes a genre filmmaking bent, with the videogame element central to the plot, yet, Tara insisted,...

Alauda Ruiz de Azúa’s “Lullaby” was described by Pedro Almodóvar as “undoubtedly the best debut in Spanish cinema for years.” Chema García Ibarra’s “The Sacred Spirit” was hailed by Variety as “one of the standouts of the 2021 Locarno Film Festival.” David Pérez Sañudo’s “Ane is Missing” won three Spanish Academy Goya Awards last year.
What these three Spanish movies, all first features, have in common is that they have passed through the Ecam Madrid Film School’s Incubator, a six-month producer mentorship initiative.
As its fifth edition rounds a final bend, Variety analyzes what its projects say about the state of cutting-edge young Spanish cinema and what the talent behind it says about the state of contemporary filmmaking.

Things got personal at Cannes Market’s Fantastic 7 showcase this year, highlighting upcoming genre projects selected by seven festivals including Spain’s Sitges, Bucheon in South Korea, Cairo, Guadalajara in Mexico, SXSW and Toronto, as well as Whanau Marama New Zealand Intl. Film Festival.
“I think it’s my most personal film ever,” said director Jaume Balagueró, also behind “[Rec],” co-directed with Paco Plaza.
In his latest film “Venus,” presented by Sitges, he will combine elements of survival drama and modern witchery. Starring Ester Expósito, it’s produced by Álex de la Iglesia and Carolina Bang.
“Why? Because it combines many elements I am personally interested in,” he told Variety.
“It’s a horror, but it’s also a very moving film about love and revenge. It’s very special to me.”
In “La mala madre” (“The Bad Mother”), director Alicia Albares will also draw from her own experiences, moving along...
