Building upon the structural experimentation of his previous work, Piñeiro embraces a radical atemporality to craft an elegant labyrinth of moments past and present. With its plays within plays and films within films, Piñeiro’s latest feature is a mesmerising mise-en-abyme enveloped in swathes of colour and imbued with an atmosphere of palpable melancholy. Featuring exceptional performances from Piñeiro regulars María Villar and Agustina Muñoz, Isabella is a profound and intriguing exploration of the inevitable battle between ambition and doubt.

Isabella will be preceded by a screening of Lois Patiño and Matías Piñeiro’s short film Sycorax. The final chapter in Piñeiro’s Las Shakesperiadas project, Sycorax is an elusive and free-form reworking of Shakespeare’s The Tempest.

This screening will feature an introduction from season curator Daniel Turner.
