Mari(dos), the feature film directed by Lucía Alemany and produced by Telecinco Cinema and Think Studio with original score by Vanessa will be released on March 10th, in Spanish theaters.
The film tells the story of Toni (Paco León) and Emilio (Ernesto Alterio) who, one morning, receive the same tragic phone call: their wives are in a coma after an avalanche at a ski resort. When they both show up at the admissions desk of the hospital, they make a startling discovery: their wives are actually the same person, Laura (Celia Freijeiro). For years, Laura has secretly led parallel lives, a wild roller coaster ride between her two families. Forced to live together until Laura wakes up, Emilio and Toni fight to prove which of the two is the most loving and suitable husband.

Vanessa’s words on scoring Mari(dos)
“The creation of Mari(dos)’score has been a project that I have really enjoyed working on. The score features harmonicas, guitars, banjos, whistles, brass instruments and double basses without ever losing the orchestral essence that surrounds the entire film. It is not a “typical” comedy, per se, but has a western “twist” to it, paying homage to the language of mourning, with a personal brand and stamp. The film moves a lot between comedy, mystery, even some epic moments and the most intimate and emotional situations, which illustrate the relationship between the children and the protagonists, making us feel like we’re a part of their personal “journey”. Undoubtedly, the public will enjoy watching and listening to this fun and emotional journey where the music serves as a common thread.”
