“Jonás Trueba’s well-crafted and nuanced film has an unusual premise – it tells the story of a couple who embrace a novel ritual. Prior to their separation, they elect to celebrate their 15-year relationship with a party,” read their statement.

“Humorous and cleverly written, the film’s circular structure manifests generosity of spirit in its inspiring look at human relationships. It is a pleasing beacon of positivity, and one which we feel will appeal to audiences around Europe.”

Sold internationally by Memento International, the film is a Los Ilusos Films (Spain) production, co-produced with Les Films du Worso (France). The producers are Javier Lafuente and Trueba.

The screenplay is by Trueba, Itsaso Arana and Vito Sanz, with photography by Santiago Racaj, sound by Álvaro Silva Wuth, Pablo Rivas Leyva and Raquel Martín, production design by Miguel Angel Rebollo, editing by Marta Velasco and music by Iman Amar, Ana Valladares and Guillermo Briales.

The Europa Cinemas Label is also awarded in Berlin, Venice, Karlovy Vary, and at Locarno.

Previous recipients of the label in Cannes include One Fine Morning, A Chiara, Mustang, 12:08 East of Bucharest, The Four Times, The Repentant, The Selfish Giant and Love At First Fight.
