As a seasoned cinephile who has traversed the winding roads of cinematic landscapes, I eagerly anticipate the impending release of “Perseidas.” The all-star Spanish cast, led by the illustrious Macarena García, promises to weave a narrative tapestry that is nothing short of mesmerizing.
Ignacio Lasierra Pinto’s first film, “Perseidas,” is scheduled to be presented in the upcoming Proyecta sidebar for feature projects at Ventana Sur. This movie has secured an impressive Spanish cast, headed by Macarena García, a Goya Award winner from the Spanish Academy (“Blancanieves,” “La mesías”). Alongside García are Elena Irureta, a Best Actress Feroz and Forqué award recipient (“Patria”), Itziar Aizpuru, a Feroz award winner herself (“Flowers”) and Ana Polvorosa (“The Last Night at Tremore Beach”).
Producer Inés Laporta shares with EbMaster that this cast would be a perfect realization of any director’s aspirations. She explains, ‘These four actors not only possess exceptional talent and demonstrated expertise, but they also create a vibrant, intergenerational tapestry within the acting world, reflecting the natural transition of life experiences from one generation of actors to another. This is especially fitting for our film, which revolves around two generations of women coming together in their pursuit of understanding.’
In Uruguay dwells celebrity chef Cata, who is summoned back to Spain for what she believes is her mother’s funeral. Upon arrival, a shocking truth unfolds: her mother is alive and the funeral she attended was actually for her father. The revelation creates a deep rift between them, but Cata finds herself compelled to delve into her past in an attempt to mend her roots.
According to Laporta, when we delved into the script, it captured our hearts utterly with its compelling storyline and memorable characters. The tale’s narrative, focusing deeply on a mother-daughter reunion and reconciliation, struck us profoundly due to its intense emotional resonance.
The producer stated that when we base our work on genuine emotions, it results in a universal appeal. This means that feelings like reuniting or forgiving, when expressed this way, can resonate deeply across different parts of the globe, striking an emotional cord everywhere.
Multiple parts of the movie are scheduled to be filmed in Candasnos, a tiny town of about 300 inhabitants nestled within the arid Los Monegros desert region of Aragón, where Lasierra was born.
According to Lasierra, there’s an entire generation from rural areas who came of age during the ’90s and had to immigrate. Just like many did in the mid-20th century, we left our villages in search of a future with more opportunities. The main character in the film is portrayed under that perspective.

The feature film ‘Perseidas’ marks the debut for Laporta and her production label, Lago&Laporta, based in Aragon. Laporta collaborates with her partner Aurora Lago Villalón, as well as seasoned producer Luis Ángel Ramírez from Imval Producciones. Both companies will jointly produce this movie.
Ramírez reminisced about instantly falling for ‘Perseidas’ when he first encountered it at Aragón’s Advanced Technology Center’s Project Incubator. He found it artistically bold and commercially appealing due to its universally relatable storyline and the talented director and producers involved. Over time, the project has flourished and been further bolstered by a stellar cast, serving as the heart of a movie that focuses on the characters’ journeys and emotions. ‘Perseidas’ continues the legacy of Spanish cinema, establishing itself as one of the current moment’s most significant artistic touchstones.
Before heading to Ventana Sur, the project had previously taken part in several workshops, including Abycine Lanza, VLC Pitch labs in Spain, and Mallorca Talent Lab. It was recognized with the award for the best feature project at the latter event.
The “Perseidas” movie will be filmed towards the end of 2025 and into early 2026. It’s expected to premiere later in the same year.
