“Pedro is a young unemployed architect who lives in Madrid with his uncle Luis, a doctor who is also unemployed. Both ramble about their uncertain future when they are surprised by news: Pedro's grandfather, a man named Paco whom he never met, has died. Paco was a renowned architect who emigrated to Mexico to make his fortune and has left him two cows and a donkey in a remote town between valleys and mountains in Cantabria. Pedro and Luis leave the city to undertake a trip with the intention of selling the animals, but they will find something that will change their plans”, says the synopsis of the Spanish film “En otro lugar”. 

The film stars the Mexican actress and model Esmeralda Pimentel, who plays the role of a young student (Paula) who falls in love -in fiction- with the Spanish actor and dancer Miguel Ángel Muñoz (Pedro).

Pablo Puyol (as Uncle Luis), Adriana Torrebejano, Litus Ruiz, Mario Pardo, Mamen García, and Codin Maticiuc join the cast of this romantic comedy. 

“En otro lugar”, which was shot at the end of 2020, shows idyllic landscapes in the city of Santander and Cantabrian towns such as Liérganes, Vega de Pas, and Esles.

The film was directed by Jesús del Cerro, well-known for his work in the Spanish series 'Médico de Familia' or 'Un Paso Adelante'. The script was written by José Luis Feito. 

The film will premiere in Spain this Friday, May 27, and will screen the same day at the Alicante Film Festival.

WHO IS ESMERALDA PIMENTEL?

María Esmeralda Pimentel Murguía (31) began her career at the age of 19 when she appeared in television commercials and as a model for clothing brands in Mexico.

Later, she has been cast in telenovelas such as “Verano de Amor” and “Beauty and the beasts”.

She has recently moved to Spain, where she has several projects ahead; among them, "Montecristo" television series alongside Cuban actor William Levy, very well-known for his role in the telenovela "Café con aroma de mujer". "Spain is a country to which I am very grateful and love, and I never believed that the doors would open for me since this is the third project and the longest, the most complex with a leading character," she said in an interview with HOLA.

In addition to "En otro lugar” and "Montecristo", Pimentel joined the cast of "Donde hubo fuego", a Netflix series which will premiere in August.
