Synopsis

A visually stunning horror piece

Something is haunting Andrea, but no one, not even herself, knows what it is. Twenty years ago, ten thousand kilometers away, the same presence terrorized Marie. Camila was the only person who could understand what was happening to her. But no one believe them. When they face this oppressive and seemingly invisible evil threat, all three hear the same thing: a wailing.

Pedro Martín-Calero studied photography in Madrid’s ECAM film school but soon segued into direction. The knowledge and skills he acquired as a director of photography have had a decisive influence in his style as a director, with every frame measured to the millimeter. One of his first video-clips, “Blanc” for the group Territoire, very quickly became a reference on the internet, opening doors for him with the most important commercials production companies in the world. Since then, he has combined making musical clips and commercials with work in film, receiving numerous international awards.
He was nominated for the Young Director Award at Cannes in 2017 for his psychological horror short film You are awake.
The Wailing is his first feature film.
