The 2015 Spanish drama film La Novia (The Bride) directed by Paula Ortiz, adapted from Blood Wedding, the 1933 tragedy by Federico García Lorca, will be screened today at 7.30pm at St James Cavalier Cinema, Valletta. Attendance is free but subject to booking.

Leonardo (Álex García), the groom (Asier Etxeandia) and the bride (Inma Cuesta) have been an inseparable triangle since they were kids, but Leonardo and the bride possess an invisible, ferocious, unbreakable thread.

The years go by and the bride is getting prepared in anguish for her wedding with the groom in the middle of the white desert where she lives with her father. The day before the ceremony, a beggar knocks on her door and offers her a present and a piece of advice: “Don’t get married if you don’t love him”, while she gives her two crystal daggers. The bride’s body shudders.

La Novia (The Bride) will be screened today at 7.30pm at St James Cavalier Cinema, Valletta, in Spanish, with English subtitles. The 93-minute film is certified 15. Attendance is free but subject to booking at www.kreattivita.org. To watch a trailer of the film, visit https:// www.kreattivita.org/en/event/la-novia-the-bride-2015.
