THE MOVIE TELLER
[LA CONTADORA DE PELÍCULAS]
María Margarita (Sara Becker), the youngest of four siblings, has a preternatural ability to perfectly recount the movies she sees — a welcome gift, considering her family can only afford one movie ticket to the only cinema in their mining town nestled in Chile's Atacama Desert. Word of her unique skill spreads throughout the village, and soon everyone pays a visit to hear her stories and be transported to a better world, if only for a brief, imaginary moment. Featuring stellar performances from Bérénice Bejo (THE ARTIST), Daniel Brühl (ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT) and Antonio de la Torre (THE REALM), THE MOVIE TELLER is an inspiring celebration of storytelling and the power of cinema to bring weary souls together and find joy.
