Los Javis ganan mejor dirección en Cannes por 'La bola negra'

Javier Calvo y Javier Ambrossi recibieron el premio a la mejor dirección en el Festival de Cannes por su película 'La bola negra', compartido con Pawel Pawlikowski.

Los directores españoles Javier Calvo y Javier Ambrossi se alzaron con el galardón tras la proyección de su obra, que entrelaza historias en torno a la figura de Lorca durante la Guerra Civil.

En declaraciones a la prensa tras el anuncio, Calvo y Ambrossi confirmaron que seguirán colaborando. “Cariños, ahora tenemos un premio de directores en Cannes, así que si había alguna duda…”, afirmaron. Ambos indicaron que planean escribir una nueva película, posiblemente en inglés, y que negociarán con Netflix en Estados Unidos, aunque insisten en que se estrene primero en salas.

La cinta se estrenará en España el 2 de octubre. Los cineastas agradecieron a Pedro Almodóvar y Rodrigo Sorogoyen, presentes en la competición, por su inspiración.
