She has only heard her grandmother and grandfather talk about her country, about the Sahara, that was taken away by Morroco. She dreams of one day seeing the ocean, seeing her real country. But the reality she lives in is different... the uncertainty of the refugee camps, the political unbalance... but she is strong... and she knows that there can be change... she won't stop dreaming, and she won't stop longing... Silvia Munt is a renowned Catalan film and theatre actress, dancer and Goya Award recipient. Silvia Munt is coming to KVIFF to present her feature debut as director Pretexts, which took the prize for best director at this year's Malaga Film Festival. A beautiful picture about the imperfection of love, unfulfilled promises and pretexts – all impediments to happiness that we ourselves create – receives its international premiere as part of KVIFF’s main competition.
