Romería

With her mother's diary in hand, eighteen-year-old Marina sets out to the western coast of Spain to the places where her parents once fell in love—parents she never had the chance to know. Before she can orient herself in a sea of unknown relatives, secrets begin to emerge that painfully echo the past even after all these years. From fragmented and often contradictory memories, Marina pieces together an unexpected portrait of the fateful, destructive love between her mother and father.

Partially autobiographical story by director Carly Simón about searching for one's own roots takes place at the turn of the millennium and received enthusiastic acclaim in the Main Competition of the Cannes Film Festival.
