Set in a working-class neighborhood in Madrid, the film narrated the woes of several down-and-out characters facing eviction from their homes. Cruz said that she had established Moonlyon, her production company, in order to create \u201cmeaningful\u201d films such as this one.<br><div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> online pharmacy <a href=\"http:\/\/iddocs.net\/images\/layout4\/gif\/ocuflox.html\">buy ocuflox<\/a> with best prices today in the USA <\/div>\n<br> Moonlyon was created in tandem with Laura Espeso and Mediapro Studio.<br \/><br \/>According to Cruz, she\u2019d asked her friend, the director Pedro Almod\u00f3var for advice on her future projects. \u201cand he always told me, \u2018Don\u2019t wait! You should do it. If you have this feeling, you have to do it&#8217;.\u201d<br \/><br \/>\u201cI\u2019ve been waiting for the right time, but for now I am producing and directing a documentary that is really my passion project and it will take me like a total of two more years,\u201d added Cruz. \u201cThis is one of the things that we are developing and that I am directing, and it\u2019s like my No. 1 thing that I have to do.\u201d<br \/><br \/>Cruz did not reveal any more details about the new project, declaring that \u201cUnfortunately I cannot share it yet, but once I will be able to I will be like talking non-stop about it because I have a lot to say about it.\u201d<br \/><br \/><strong><em>On the Fringe<\/em><\/strong> had earlier been seen at the Venice Film Festival and also received five nominations at the Goyas. It was the directorial debut of her childhood friend, Juan Diego Botto, who also plays Cruz\u2019s husband in the movie.<br><div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> online pharmacy <a href=\"http:\/\/iddocs.net\/images\/layout4\/gif\/valtrex.html\">buy valtrex<\/a> with best prices today in the USA <\/div>\n<br> Its cast also includes many non-professional actors who were experiencing housing difficulties in Madrid. <br \/><br \/>\u201cThis is a reality. It could happen anywhere in the world. People in the film are real people who have had these situations, one of them had four children \u2026 and suddenly something went wrong and they were in the streets with four kids,\u201d said Cruz. <br \/><br \/>She told a masterclass at Biarritz of her hope that films like this could help raise consciousness about the suffering of marginalized people: \u201cWe know this movie isn\u2019t going to change the world, but we hope it can inspire and open debates about important subjects,\u201d Cruz continued.<br \/><br \/>During her presentation, Cruz also reminisced about her own passion for film, which began when her family had bought a Betamax VCR. \u201cWhen I liked a movie, I would watch it five times in a row and that\u2019s how I got to know my favorite actors and directors, and that\u2019s how my obsession with Almod\u00f3var started,\u201d said Cruz. She also spoke of her teenaged obsession with Stephen Frears\u2019s <em><strong>Dangerous Liaisons<\/strong><\/em>. (The first American movie she auditioned for was <em><strong>The Hi-Lo Country<\/strong><\/em>, which he directed.)<br \/><br \/>Nouvelles Vagues is a festival specializing in films about young people. It was started by fashion executive J\u00e9r\u00f4me Pulis and producer Sandrine Brauer. Pulis had worked at Christian Dior for some sixteen years. The fashion House of Chanel is also a significant backer of the festival, as revealed by stylish gown Cruz sported at the event.<br \/><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cinemadailyus.com\/author\/edward-moran\/\">Check out more of Edward&#8217;s articles<\/a>.\u00a0<br \/><br \/><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pen\u00e9lope Cruz may have stolen the show at the inaugural edition of the Nouvelles Vagues Festival in Biarritz.
