Filming begins for Tattoo, a short film directed and written by Pedro de Mercader and produced by Anass Álvarez. This project, which will be filmed in the streets of Salamanca (Jesús street, Pan y Carbón street, and Pontifical University), started as a small project that has managed to attract professionals from all corners of Spain.
The short film, which will play with science fiction, is about a mature and mysterious man who appears in one of Salamanca's alleys. We don't know where he comes from; he simply appears in a place that isn't his own. He must fulfill a mission: to save the life of his beloved before it's too late. He has been preparing for this mission since he lost her a long time ago. Will he manage to save her? And what's even more important, what consequences will his selfish mission entail?
This production is spearheaded by a professional star of Mario Zorrilla's caliber. His participation is a crucial asset for this short film, and his presence could represent a very important asset for the city of Salamanca. Known for his role as Mauricio Godoy in “El Secreto del Puente Viejo,” he has acted in other productions such as “Médico de Familia,” “Hospital central,” in Guillermo del Toro's Oscar-winning “Pan's Labyrinth,” or Enrique Urbizu's “Como ser Feliz y Disfrutarlo.” The rest of the cast will be made up of actors from Salamanca who have been dedicated to the world of theater since they were young.
The main creators of this short film have been Pedro de Mercader, director and screenwriter, and Anass Álvarez, producer, assistant director, along with María Caballero, and art director.
For cinematography, Cesar Valladares, along with Alberto García and Asier Gascón from the production company PB2HS, will ensure that the staging meets the director's and producer's taste. For makeup and wardrobe, YouTuber Irene Cuadrado and La Malhablada actress Cristina Liz; for sound, José Andrades along with his assistant Daniel Bengoechea; as editor Arturo Riesco and for graphics and special effects María Caballero. The soundtrack will be handled by Alberto Carmona, a musician from Madrid, and the storyboard and poster design will be carried out by Manuel García, a renowned Salamanca artist who has published in the United States and France.
This union of talents, far from contradicting each other, has generated a synergy that is resulting in high levels of quality for the final product, which will be presented at various national and international festivals.
