Filmmaker Explains Why He Chose Madrid for His Film

Madrid seemed like a very, very logical place for the story to unfold.

There were other places that were possible, but, uh, the business people were dealing with Madrid, and Madrid was interested, and I was very interested in Madrid s- uh, because it fits right in with the, the idea of the story. And I'd never made a movie in Madrid.

I'd made... I w- worked in San Sebastian, I worked in Barcelona, and many other European cities, but, uh, I'd never worked in Madrid, and I thought it would be wonderful to have the experience and a fresh, uh, atmosphere for my film to work in Madrid. I have been here, I've played music here,

and I've promoted films here, but I've never had the pleasure of actually being here for a long time to make a film here.
