Celia’s Lives / Las vidas de Celia Series: Spanish Cinema Now! [Dec 8 - 26 2006] Director: Antonio Chavarrías, Country: Spain, Release: 2006, Runtime: 101 “Cunningly structured noir Celia’s Lives is helmer Antonio Chavarrías’ finest work to date.” – Jonathan Holland, Variety One night, Celia (Najwa Nimri) leaves the bustle of a local fairground and heads to a railroad yard, where she stands facing an oncoming train. Meanwhile, in another part of town, a young woman is murdered. As the investigation into the case proceeds, it seems to point to the world of Celia and her family — her husband, sisters, their lovers, Celia’s ex and several others, all bound together in a tangled web of secrets, betrayals, jealousy and fear. The detective assigned to the case, Miguel Ángel (Luis Tosar), finds himself increasingly drawn into these family dramas. One of Spain’s finest producers, Antonio Chavarrías returns to the director’s chair for this unsettling look at a group of people bound together by inexpressible feelings of guilt toward one another.
