2025  | Drama | Directed by Lucía Aleñar Iglesias | 1h 37m | NR | Catalan with English Sub

Teenager Cata (Zoe Stein) is summering at her grandparents’ house on the Spanish island of Mallorca, swimming in the turquoise Mediterranean waters, teasing her younger sister, and flirting with a Swedish boy. But this vacation idyll is cut short when her beloved grandmother Catalina (Marta Angelat) abruptly passes away, hurling each member of Cata’s family into mourning. One day, she slips into her grandmother’s dress and feels an unexpected pull toward her  clothes and belongings. As the boundary between the living and the departed begins to blur, FORASTERA (Spanish for “stranger”) becomes a quietly suspenseful meditation on memory, grief, and the unseen forces that continue to influence our lives.

“A rare, nuanced look at grief and growing up.” – Cineuropa

“ENCHANTING… An exquisitely deconstructed ghost story, a muted mystery that beguiles while remaining deeply grounded in its evocative setting.” – Natalia Winkelman, The New York Times
