SPA26 Sofia's Suspicion

La sospecha de Sofía

AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE

From multi award-winning director Imanol Uribe, Sofia's Suspicion is a gripping espionage thriller about truth, lies and secrets set between Spain and Germany during the Cold War, based on the acclaimed novel by Paloma Sánchez-Garnica.

When Daniel (Álex González, X-Men: First Class) discusses with his wife accepting an enigmatic invitation to travel to East Berlin in the middle of the Cold War to meet his birth mother, he has no idea that it will turn their world upside down.

Unbeknownst to them, they will become essential pieces of the KGB’s secret plans to set up operations in Francoist Spain. But when he returns to Spain, Daniel's wife Sofía (Aura Garrido, The Ministry of Time) starts to suspect that something is not quite what it seems.

Weaving political intrigue with an intimate emotional journey, Sofia's Suspicion is an engrossing spy story filled with tension, deception, survival and intrigue.

"A Spanish-style espionage story, with a brilliant protagonist couple and a very attractive plot.”- AccionCine
