Rosa's Wedding

Rosa (Candela Peña) is turning 45—the perfect time to not only breathe new life into her life but also set a new course. Up until now, Rosa has mostly lived for everyone else. She’s worked tirelessly as a costume designer and taken care of her brother’s children and her mother. Now it’s her turn! Rosa leaves her life in the big city of Valencia behind and opens her own shop in her mother’s old tailor’s shop—in the heart of a sleepy town on the Spanish coast. Taking her life into her own hands, however, turns out to be not so easy—especially when it means putting her own needs ahead of the problems of her father, boyfriend, and daughter... “Rosa’s Wedding is a warm-hearted and humorous tragicomedy that sensitively explores the theme of self-determination. The film tells the story of a woman who, after years of conforming to the wishes of others, decides to put her own happiness first. With plenty of charm, realism, and a compelling lead actress, the film conveys a positive message about courage, new beginnings, and personal freedom. The blend of humor and emotional moments makes *Rosa’s Wedding* an entertaining yet thought-provoking cinematic experience.” (Lexikon des Internationalen Films)
