The Wedding Day

Directed by Marta Elīna Martinsone

Cleo is a once promising actress in her 30s with a career in theatre that’s going nowhere and a boyfriend who still harbours the dream of becoming a famous rockstar. She spends her days in a bohemian haze of booze and ennui, until she meets a legendary theatre director who is on the lookout for a new muse. He offers Cleo the biggest role of her career - The Bride in Federico Garcia Lorca’s “Blood wedding”. Cleo tries to turn her life around, but her co-dependent boyfriend starts to slip back into his old, self-destructive ways, and the director wants from the actress more than just her talent.
