as a talent to track, Spain’s Jaione Camborda is developing her sophomore effort, “The Rye Horn,” a story that takes place in ‘70s Galicia. After a terrible event, midwife María is forced to become a fugitive and, to wrestle back her freedom, flee Galicia for Portugal along an old smugglers’ route.
“The Rye Horn” has been developed at two of Spain’s leading labs, San Sebastian’s Ikusmira Berriak and Madrid’sIncubator, and has participated at the TIFF Filmmaker Lab. The project is back by Galician pubcaster TVG and the region’s Agency of Cultural Industries . “The Rye Horn” is produced by Andrea Vázquez at Miramemira – the company behind Oliver Laxe’s Un Certain Regard winner “Fire Will Come” – and the director’s own label, Esnatu Zinema.
