LA IMATGE PERMANENT
THE PERMANENT PICTURE (Directors' Week)
Laura Ferrés
In a town in rural Southern Spain, Antonia, a teenage mother, disappears in the middle of the night, leaving her baby behind. Fifty years later and many kilometers up North, Carmen, an introverted casting director, looks for people to share their experiences when arriving in a new city. In her search, Carmen will meet Antonia, an impulsive woman who will intrude into her loneliness. Who says that time heals all wounds?

Laura Ferrés
Laura FerrĂ©s (El Prat de Llobregat, 1989) is a writer and director. Her first short film, Los Desheredados, is a portrait of her father facing the end of the family bus company. It was premiered at Cannes Film Festival Criticsâ Week, where it won the award for best short film. Since then, it was screened at 80 film festivals, nominated at the European Film Awards, and awarded as best short film at the Goya Awards by the Spanish Film Academy, among other distinctions. The short film was released in Spanish theaters, not before a feature or as part of a shorts program, but solo, an unprecedented event in Spain as far as short films are concerned. La Imatge Permanent is her first feature film.
