Going to the Movies

“UPSIDE DOWN” (UN AMOR ENTRE DOS MUNDOS) RELEASE ON FRIDAY, 5TH APRIL, IN ORIGINAL VERSION WITHOUT SUBTITLES. EXCLUSIVELY AT CINES VERDI MADRID.
Next Friday 5th April we will release the Canadian film Upside Down directed by Juan Solanas and starring Kirsten Dunst and Jim Sturges. The film will be release IN ENGLISH at Cines Verdi Madrid. “Upside Down” will be screened in English without subtitles.
The story happens in two opposite planets that are one on top of the other, these worlds have opposite gravities that alter the usual order of things. The fantastic frame, the unique setting and the audacious visual has made difficult to insert subtitles the usual way.Written and directed by filmmaker Juan Solanas (“Nordeste”) and set in twinned worlds with opposite gravities, the film puts an eye-popping, original twist on the classic tale of forbidden love.
A long time ago, two planets came so close to each other that they are almost touching. Instead of the skyline all its inhabitants see the terrain of another planet. Each planet has its own gravity laws and natural conditions. These parallel universes connect but this proximity and the two gravities involve a lot of complexity.
Adam (British actor Jim Sturgess, “Across the Universe” and “The Way Back”) is a seemingly ordinary guy in a very extraordinary universe. He lives humbly trying to make ends meet, but his romantic spirit holds on to the memory of a girl he loved once upon a time from another world, an inverted affluent world with its own gravity, directly above but beyond reach... a girl named Eden ((Kirsten Dunst, 'Spider-Man' y 'Melancolía'). Their childhood flirtation becomes an impossible love. But when he catches a glimpse of grownup Eden on television, nothing will stop him to get her back. In a desperate attempt to find her, he quickly sets about infiltrating the upper-world. And so, begins a quest fraught with dangers and challenges.
“Upside Down” is a visually stunning romantic adventure that asks the question: What if love was stronger than gravity?

WHAT THE CRITICS SAY
“This is a fairy tale, so love cannot die(...)Upside Down's spectacular gravity-defying Inception-style trickery will come into play. Prepare yourself for something special”. -Stuart Heritage, The Guardian -
“The look of the film is great, particularly when we get to situations where the two worlds try to coexist. (...) It's a wonderful visual shock — seeing two planes of action, with people walking upside down across the screen while other people cross it "normally." - Stephen Whitty, New Jersey On-line -
”The sci-fi love story “Upside Down” features a Romeo and Juliet separated not by a family feud, but by gravity.There are some really pretty special effects, too, such as rain that falls up and the cinematography, which renders everything in a cool, blue pallor, is simply gorgeous”. - Michael O'Sullivan, The Washigton Post -
