SYNOPSIS Marina, a young Andalusian actress, discovers that her grandmother's Alzheimer's is already very advanced during a visit to her Catalan family. The situation worsens when she sees the humor with which her mother and the others take the disease. Between the after-dinner coffee and her grandmother's return to the nursing home, Marina will have to decide what role to play in her estranged family and whether or not to forgive her mother's behavior.
Carles Gómez Alemany
He Makes his first short film at the age of 11 with a Panasonic Mini DV camera given by the Wise Men. He moved to Barcelona to study the Master of Direction at the Escola de Cinema de Barcelona, where he took classes from directors such as Víctor Erice and Fernando León de Aranoa. The studies are combined and finally replaced by work as a third assistant director in projects such as Modelo 77 by Alberto Rodríguez, 2022, and Saben aquell by David Trueba, 2023. With this experience, he makes his first professional short film, Ya no te veo in 2021, which is selected at festivals such as the Sant Joan d' Alacant Film Festival and the K-LIDOSCOPI Festival. La filla de ma mare is the culmination of all his previous work.
