Synopsis
Alexandra and Sergi make love in their tiny Barcelona apartment. They’ve decided to have a baby, but find their plans dashed when Alex receives an offer for an artistic residency in Los Angeles. Understanding this may be Alex’s last chance to re-launch her photography career, the couple decides to put their plans on hold for a year. Separated by 10,000 kilometers, Alex and Sergi must rely on virtual communication to keep the flame of their relationship alive. But with their realities no longer shared and the touch of one another gone, the technology that has supposedly brought the world closer together may just tear them apart.

Carlos Marques-Marcet
He graduated from the UCLA School of Film and Television. His debut feature film catapulted him to fame as a young filmmaker with a distinctive voice: 10,000 Km (D’A 2014) won a Goya Award and five Gaudí Awards, and was also recognized at the SXSW and Málaga film festivals, among others. His subsequent films have established him as a key figure in understanding the new wave of Catalan auteur cinema with international reach and a particular sensitivity to life’s transitions.
