Berta
Following the extraordinary DANA, Spanish filmmaker Lucía Forner Segarra returns to Fantasia with BERTA, a tensely compelling new work that continues her explorations of accountability and empowerment following gendered violence. With a riveting lead performance from Nerea Barros (MARSHLAND) and a score from Forner’s regular composer Joan Vilà (EVERYONE WILL BURN), this film, like its titular character, leaves severe marks.
