HBO: Antonio Hernández's THE HIDDEN (OCULTO)

Antonio Hernández's psychological thriller The Hidden (Oculto) is scheduled to be repeatedly broadcast on HBO Latino this month and HBO Signature next month; HBO Latino apparently will be showing it in Spanish without subtitles, whereas HBO Signature apparently will be showing it in Spanish with English subtitles. Warner Sogefilms A.I.E. released it theatrically in Spain on November 4th of last year.

The screenplay for The Hidden was written by Hernández and Enrique Brasó. The movie stars Laia Marull as Beatriz, Leonardo Sbaraglia as Álex, Angie Cepeda as Natalia, Gerardo Malla as Ignacio Wissman, Joaquín Climent as Roberto, Gary Piquer as Carlos, Emma Cohen as Leonor, Geraldine Chaplin as Adela, William Miller as Javier, and Marta Aledo as Inés.

Here's a synopsis for The Hidden from the website of international sales agent Latido Films (Latido Consorcio de Exportación del Cine Español S.L.): "Natalia (Angie Cepeda) is a beautiful woman; the kind men die for. But she has one weakness - she believes in premonitory dreams. Beatriz (Laia Marull) will take advantage of it. Years ago, Natalia stole her man and wasted his life - he ended up killing himself. Now Beatriz will get the revenge she has been longing for; for months, she will manipulate Natalia, feeding her dreams, leading her to the verge of madness. Meanwhile, in a strange way, history is about to repeat itself. A man, Álex (Leonardo Sbaraglia), is falling in love with both of them. Again. Except this time, Natalia is the one more likely to die...."
