What’s being screened
«Hola, ¿estás sola?» (1995) is the debut feature by Icíar Bollaín, a road movie that portrays the friendship and identity search of two young women in 1990s Spain. Shot in a realist style with a documentary-like tone, the film explores themes such as precarious labour, migration, and sorority. It will be screened in its original version, uncut and without dubbing, as part of the Valencian Film Archive’s programme.
Who directs it
Icíar Bollaín, a Spanish director and actress, made her directorial debut with this film after collaborating with Ken Loach on «Land and Freedom» (1995). «Hola, ¿estás sola?» marked the beginning of a filmography focused on social stories and complex female characters, as seen in «Take My Eyes» (2003) or «Mataharis» (2007). This screening at Edificio Rialto revives a key title in contemporary Spanish cinema.
