After winning the Audience Award at the past Málaga Film Festival (Zona Cine section), Blue Rai will arrive in cinemas on the upcoming 13 April distributed by Begin Again Films.

Directed by Pedro B. Abreu and with a technical crew made up of ESCAC graduates, Blue Rai is one of five films developed and produced as part of ESCAC’s Ópera Prima Project.

In the director’s words, the film is «A true declaration of love to cinema… The story of a young guy who grew up watching films, and drew everything he thinks he knows about love from the romantic comedies of the eighties and early nineties. Films imbued with a certain naïve innocence, but also epic and moving. Rai sees himself as the romantic hero of one of those stories; he believes that the end justifies the means in love, and that a cinematic adventure can only end with the girl in his arms… »
