After dazzling audiences in Hollywood, fiery actress Macarena Granada finds herself back in Spain. This time, she’s not just visiting but she’s starring in a lavish epic about Queen Isabella I of Castile. But don’t expect your typical historical drama. It is a film within a film, where the on-screen drama is constantly punctuated by the off-screen chaos. As the narrative unfolds, tensions flare, hilarious mishaps occur, and the ghosts of the Spanish Civil War still linger in the background. Through it all, Macarena wrestles with her own demons and the challenges of returning to a country she barely recognizes.
Directed by Fernando Trueba. The film stars Penélope Cruz as Macarena Granada, Antonio Resines as Blas Fontiveros, Neus Asensi as Lucía Gandía, and Cary Elwes as Gary Jones.
