Me Too (Yo También)
Best of the Festival screening Announced! ME TOO (Yo Tambíen)
Me Too, a delightful, offbeat comedy-drama tells an unusual love story, which challenges society's deeply ingrained prejudices. Daniel, the first European with down syndrome to have graduated from university, begins a social services job in Seville where he meets free-spirited co-worker Nuria. They quickly become friends, however, as Daniel's love for Nuria grows so does his desire to be normal. Although the rebellious Nuria scoffs at the notion of normalcy, she is forced to confront the fact that Daniel is indeed different. Bright, understated cinematography and an upbeat soundtrack complement insightful, award-winning performances by Lola Dueñas (Volver, Broken Embraces, The Sea Inside) and Pablo Pineda. Respectful of its characters and bold in its thinking, this film asks some serious questions and often gives some amusing answers. A film that, for a few hours, will erase the memory of all other films. It absolutely must be seen. Produced by Julio Médem.
