Alejandro Marín (director of the series Maricón perdido) is currently shooting his first feature film between Seville and Barcelona, with the same title as a song released in 1974 by the former Spanish duo Las Grecas: Te estoy amando locamente, the story of a mother capable of anything - and, above all, of overcoming her prejudices - for the love of her son. It stars Ana Wagener (The Realm [+lire aussi :

Written by Marín, the story takes place in the Andalusian city in 1977, in a sad and dark historical moment in Spain when homosexuality was still considered a crime, as in the recently ended dictatorship of Franco. It is here where Reme, a traditional mother moved by the love of her son - a teenage aspiring artist - will get involved in the Andalusian LGBTI movement, paradoxically born within the Church.

The filmmaker states that "Te estoy amando locamente [+lire aussi :

A graduate in directing from the Cinema and Audiovisual School of Catalonia (ESCAC), in 2016 Alejandro Marín directed the short film Laborable, which was selected in many Spanish festivals. A year later came Nacho no conduce, which won the award for best short film at the Malaga Film Festival, at Mostra Fire! In Barcelona and at Film Week in Medina del Campo, among others.
