THEY WILL BE DUST [POLVO SERÁN] featuring Q&amp;A with filmmaker Carlos Marques-Marcet and post-screening reception hosted by SPAIN arts &amp; culture

A daring, romantic and frank musical about life and death, THEY WILL BE DUST finds septuagenarian Claudia (Ángela Molina, THAT OBSCURE OBJECT OF DESIRE, BROKEN EMBRACES) facing a terminal illness diagnosis head-on. Refusing to relinquish control over her own life, she makes the unimaginable choice to end her time on this planet. Her devoted husband of 40 years, Flavio (Pablo Larraín regular Alfredo Castro), cannot fathom a life without her, so he makes plans for them to visit a clinic in Switzerland together. Under the guise of a vow renewal ceremony, the couple plan one last big celebration to say goodbye to their children and closest friends. But not everyone will understand their fateful choice. Directed with stylish verve by Carlos Marques-Marcet (10,000 KM), THEY WILL BE DUST features pulse-pounding songs and breathtaking choreography that burst across the screen, allowing the characters to express deep feelings they would never dare speak aloud. Molina and Castro shine in career-best performances as the complex central couple. Molina’s powerful portrayal earned her Best Actress at the 2024 Rome Film Festival, while the film won the Platform Award at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival. 

In English and Spanish with English subtitles. NOT RATED
