‘I’m Loving You Madly’, by graduate Alejandro Marín, premieres on Movistar+

Alejandro Marín’s debut feature—Marín also directed the series ‘Maricón perdido’—is a socially minded drama based on real events; a film that takes a stand, inspires and moves as it portrays the beginnings of the LGTBIQ+ movement in Andalusia in 1977.

‘I’m Loving You Madly’, the debut feature by graduate Alejandro Marín, premieres this weekend on Movistar+.

After 18 weeks in cinemas, the film has surpassed 90.000 cinema admissions, taking the equivalent of 547.000€ at the box office. The debut feature has become one of the year’s most successful films, reaching fourth place in the ranking of Filmaffinity’s films of 2023.

Awards and recognition

The premiere comes as the film is nominated at the Premios Forqué, held in Madrid in December, for the Film and Values Education Award, and is also a contender for the Premios Goya and the Premis Gaudí.

It has also recently received the Tudela City Award for Best Film at the 23rd edition of the Tudela Opera Prima Film Festival. Congratulations to the team!

I’m Loving You Madly

I’m Loving You Madly focuses on one of the key moments in LGTBIQ+ history: the fight to repeal the Law on Social Danger and for sexual amnesty, told through the story of Miguel and his mother, Reme, played by Ana Wagener (‘The Sleeping Voice’), a woman able to overcome her own prejudices out of love for her son.
